Slowburn
Yeah, mama and papa told me
I was crazy to stay
I was gay in New York
Which is a fag in L.A.
So I saved my money
And I took a plane
Wherever I go they treat me the same
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes down
I'm going down fifty-third street
And they're spitting in my face
I'm learning the ropes
Yeah I'm learning a trade
The east river truckers
Is churning with trash
I've got so much money
That I'm spending so fast
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes dow
I was crazy to stay
I was gay in New York
Which is a fag in L.A.
So I saved my money
And I took a plane
Wherever I go they treat me the same
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes down
I'm going down fifty-third street
And they're spitting in my face
I'm learning the ropes
Yeah I'm learning a trade
The east river truckers
Is churning with trash
I've got so much money
That I'm spending so fast
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes dow
Tunisian Twist
Every evening at three minutes past five
He visits the girl
Who works behind the counter
In the chip shop
He buys some chips also
She always gives him the smallest
Greenest, most undercooked ones
She could find
He always complains....
He always complains....
He always complains....
She gives him the bigger bag
It always breaks her heart to do so
Seeing him grow
From Syd Little
To Eddie Large
To Demis Roussos
She gives him...
(ad infinitum)
