Roy Wood - Oh What A Shame текст песни

Well I’ve been hanging’ around
Just one of a crowd
And there ain’t much going on
‘Til I was crusing along with the radio on
Playin’ one of my favourite songs

Now they’re checking my tyres
I’ll get my girl on the wire
Supposin’ I ever find a phone
But tomy utter dismay
I got the answer okay
The other voice was a baritone

CHORUS:
Oh what a shame
Oh what a shame
Oh what a shame
Get back on the road again

Feelin’ less than inspired
I chased the girl I admired
Her fancy coat was real raccoon
She could beguine the beguine
While reading Life magazine
And feed her face with a silver spoon

I must be so debonair
I threw my glass in the air
And said: “Do you wanna take me home?”
For making such a display
She drove me down to the bay
And threw me out in the danger zone

chorus

Well I have been gettin’ up early
With some beautiful girls
And I’ll admit I’ve enjoyed a few
I’m tired of trackin’ around
I end up being the hound
I know this is what I’m gonna do

I gotta get some honey
With a big white sunny top
Road Rocket Chevrolet
So with her seat belt tied
I’ll pull into the side
To see the cops tow the car away

chorus
