Testo Mr. E - The Getaway People

Testo della canzone Mr. E (The Getaway People), tratta dall'album the Getaway People

Five little kids in a rock and roll band
Got money in the pocket and money to spend
The drummer had a friend that had a cousin called Jack
That had a head for the good times called crack
He liked to go cruising in his red convertible
The band heard the news playing on the radio
Speeding down the highway and ready for more
He never saw it coming and then they were four
Four little kids in a rock and roll band
Got an X-man going with a demon in his hand
Likes to pose, expose, man it snows up his nose
And this is how the story goes
Lost in a maze doing purple haze
Beautiful, beautiful
From the A to the B to the XTC
To the D to an E and then they were three
Mr. E my man, you can drive my van
Get your booty on the table, take a place in my band
Mr. E my man with the master plan
It's a different fable in your stable
Friends of mine are friends of yours
Three little kids in a rock and roll band
Bump into the man with the master plan
Face to face, Mr. Bassman pays for his ways
And then the better he plays
E string, A string, B string, G
Tell all the people what you see
Fell off the stage like bassmen do
He never got up and then they were two
Two little kids in a rock and roll band
Paying their dues to the candy man
The mook had to go just to pay for the snow
The herman be free for the LSD
You see, life ain't easy when you're down to the last key
It's not easy
Hotel sleazy, OD'd, gone
He never got up and then they were one
Mr. E my man, you can drive my van
Get your booty on the table, take a place in my band
Mr. E my man with the master plan
It's a different fable in your stable
Friends of mine are friends of yours
One little kid in a rock and roll band
Tried so hard just to understand
Dopey, freaky, day and night
Just how long till I see the light
Mr. E is truly a mystery to me
Mr. E is a guy who a lot of people see in the eye
Mr. E is like the catcher in the rye
If you wanna know the reason, only E can tell you why
Mr. E my man, you can drive my van
Get your booty on the table, take a place in my band
Mr. E my man with the master plan
It's a different fable in your stable
Friends of mine are friends of yours
