"Rock & Roll Supershow" is my affectionate tribute to the early '70s glam rock/bubblegum I love with nods and winks to Sweet, Slade and T-Rex.
lyrics
ROCK & ROLL SUPERSHOW
v1: if you can fit in polyphene like some rockabilly dream
you better move real fast and get up off your ass, fix your hair and grab some cash
v2: i’m gonna dress real flash, i gotta rockit to impress so i can make the scene, with the backroom boys, debutantes and local queens
pre-chorus: all the kids getting’ ready to blow
got my pants on tight, ill be your romeo
(got a pocketful of pills, i’ll be your romeo )
you know we can’t be late, promised momma poppa gonna be home by two, so let’s hit the street, shake it up and act real cool
chorus: get ready for the rock and roll, rock and roll supershow
get ready for the rock and roll, rock and roll supershow
(ready steady for the) rock and roll (gettin’ ready)
it’s such a freaky scene, the golden age of rock & roll
v3: now we’re standing in a line and watchin’ glitter philly
man he’s quite a sight, with his slade tattoo, sparkle jeans on a friday night
v4: soon we’re sitting in our seats and the show’s about to start
and the room is packed, gonna hit it hard, smash it up and have a blast
