I'll call you thing Just when the moon sings And place your face in stone Upon every star And gripped in the arms Of the changeless madman We'll dance our lives away In the Ballrooms of Mars
You talk about day I'm talking 'bout night time When monsters call out The names of men Bob Dylan knows And I bet Alan Freed did There are things at night That are better not to behold
You dance With your lizard leather boots on And pull the strings That change the faces of men You diamond browed hag You're a gutter- gaunt gangster John Lennon knows your name And I've seen him I've seen him
ROCK!!!

Wilbert Harrison in "Kansas City": "Aw, but ya know it -- yeah, mercy!"
I've developed a minor fixation with this Wilbert Harrison B-side. What the heck does he yell? (The second one sounds like "Mosquito Legs!!" but no idea about the first. "Ahh Conchy-toochee?")

In "The Cover of the Rolling Stone" when Dr. Hook yells out "ROCK AND ROLLLLLLL!!!!!"... and you hear this atrocious out-of-tune electric guitar solo by a guy that clearly can't play the guitar to save his life and at the end Dr.'s like "Aw man, that's beautiful."
