From Electric Warrior (1971) by T. Rex

Mambo Sun (Bolan) - 3:38

Beneath the bebop moon
I want to croon with you
Beneath the Mambo Sun
I got to be the one with you.

My life's a shadow-less horse
If I can't get across to you
In the alligator rain
My hearts all pain for you.

Girl you're good
And I've got wild knees for you
On a mountain range
I'm Dr. Strange for you.

Upon a savage lake
Make no mistake I love you
I got a powder keg leg
And my wig's all pooped for you.

With my hat in my hand
I'm a hungry man for you
I got stars in my beard
And I feel real weird for you.

Beneath the bebop moon
I'm howling like a loon for you
Beneath the Mambo Sun
I've got to be the one for you.

Cosmic Dancer (Bolan) - 4:26

I was dancing when I was twelve
I was dancing when I was aaah
I danced myself right out of the womb
Is it strange to dance so soon
I danced myself right out of the womb.

I was dancing when I was eight
Is it strange to dance so late
I danced myself into the tomb
Is it strange to dance so soon
I danced myself into the tomb

Is it wrong to understand
The fear that dwells inside a man
What's it like to be a loon
I liken it to a balloon

I danced myself out of the womb
Is it strange to dance so soon
I danced myself into the tomb
But then again once more
I danced myself out of the womb
Is it strange to dance so soon
I danced myself out of the womb

Jeepster (Bolan) - 4:10

You're so sweet
You're so fine
I want you all and everything
Just to be mine

'Cos you're my baby
'Cos you're my love
Girl I'm just a Jeepster
For your love

You slide so good
With bones so fair
You've got the universe
Reclining in your hair

Just like a car
You're pleasing to behold
I'll call you Jaguar
If I may be so bold

The wild winds blow
Upon your frozen cheeks
The way you flip your hip
It always makes me weak

Your motivation
Is so sweet
Your
Vibrations
Are burning up my feet

Girl I'm just a jeepster
For your love
Girl I'm just a vampire
For your love

I'm gonna suck you.

Monolith (Bolan) - 3:45

The throne of time
Is a kingly thing
From whence you know
We all do begin
And dressed as you are girl
In your fashions of fate
Baby it's too late.

Shallow are the actions
Of the children of men
Fogged was their vision
Since the ages began
And lost like a lion
In the canyons of smoke
Girl it's no joke

Lean Woman Blues (Bolan) - 3:01

Lean love
All you give to me
Is lean love
I'm like a beggar in the sand
With the sky in his hand
And I'm blue

Black day all you give to me
Are your wild ways
Well you're the love of my life
And then you gorge me with a knife
And I'm blue

Lightening
All the heavy world
Is frightening
I'm like a beggar in the sand
On the beach of the land of you
And I'm blue

Bang a Gong (Get It on) (Bolan) - 4:24

Well you're dirty and sweet
Clad in Black
Don't look back
And I love you
You're dirty and sweet oh yea.

Well you're slim and you're weak
You got the teeth
Of the Hydra upon you.
You're dirty sweet
And you're my girl.

Get It On
Bang a gong
Get It On

You're built like a car
You got a hubcap
Diamond star halo
You're built like a car
Oh yea.

You're an untamed youth
That's the truth
With your cloak full of eagles
You're dirty sweet
And you're my girl

Well you're windy and wild
You got the blues
I'm your shoes and your stockings.
You're windy and wild
Oh yeah.

You're built like a car
You got a hubcap
Diamond star halo
You're built like a car
Oh yea.

Planet Queen (Bolan) - 3:11

Planet Queen
Perchance to dream
She used my head
Like an exploder
The Planet Queen

The worlds the same
I am to blame
She used my head
Like a revolver
The world's the same

Well it's all right
Love is what you want
Flying saucer take me away
Give me your daughter

Dragon head
Machine of lead
Cadillac King
Dancer in the midnight
Dragon head

Planet Queen
Perchance to dream
She used my head
Like a revolver
The world's the same.

Girl (Bolan) - 2:29

O God
High on your fields above earth
Come and be real for us
You with your mind
Oh yes you are
Beautifully fine.

Girl Electric witch you are
Limp in society's ditch you are
Visually fine
Oh yes you are
But mentally dying.

Boy
Just like a boat you are
Sunk but some how you float you do
Mentally weak
Oh yes you are
But so much you speak.

The Motivator (Bolan) - 3:57

I love the way you walk
Don't you know you're a cool motivator
Love the way you walk
Love the way you walk

I love the way your eye
It doth shine like an Egyptian ruby
Love the way it shines
Love the way it shines
Shine on.

I love the clothes you wear
They're so mean they're so free
They're so handsome
Love the clothes you wear
Love the clothes you wear

I love the broken crown
The one you stole from the King
And held for ransom
Love the broken crown
Love the broken crown
I love it.

I love the golden cat
You know the one that you keep
In your bedroom
Love the golden cat
Love the golden cat.

I love the velvet hat
You know the one that caused
A revolution
Love the velvet hat
Love the velvet hat
I love it.

Life's a Gas (Bolan) - 2:23

I could have loved you girl
Like a planet
I could have chained your heart
To a star
But it really doesn't matter at all
But it really doesn't matter at all
Life's a gas. I hope it's gonna last.

I could have built a house
On the ocean
I could placed your love
In the sky

I could have turned you
Into a priestess
I could have burned
Your fate in the sand.

Rip off (Bolan) - 3:38

In the moonlight
Fighting with the night
It's a rip-off

Kissing all the slain
I'm bleeding in the rain
It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off

Rocking in the nude
I'm feeling such a dude
It's a rip-off

Dancing in the dark
With the tramps in the park
It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off

See your baby's stud
Sliding in the mud
It's a rip-off

Bleached on the beach
I want to tickle your peach
It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off

See the girl dance
In her man-skin pants
It's a rip-off

Terra-plane Tommy
Wants to bang your gong
It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off

Gypsy girl's good
People treat her like a fool
It's a rip-off

The President's weird
He's got a burgundy beard
It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off

I'm the King of the highway
I'm the Queen of the hop
You should see me
At the Governors ball
Doing the rip-off bop
I'm a social person
I'm the creature in disguise
There's a man with a whip
On his silver lip
Living inside my eyes

I'm the cat from the alley
I'm the fleet foot voodoo man
There's very little that's ever said
All of which I understand

Caught like a skunk
In space and time
It's a rip-off

If it's hers
Well it must be mine
It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off
