IT WASN'T VERY LARGE

THERE WAS JUST ENOUGH ROOM TO CRAM THE DRUMS

IN THE CORNER OVER BY THE DODGE

IT WAS A FIFTY-FOUR

WITH A MASHED UP DOOR
E
AND A CHEESY LITTLE AMP
AB
WITH A SIGH ON THE FRONT SAID "GENDER CHAMP"

WE COULD JAM IN JOE'S GARAGE
HIS MAMA WAS SCREAMING,  HIS DAD WAS MAD
WE WAS PLAYING THE SAME OLD SONG
IN THE AFTERNOON AND SOMETIMES WE WOULD
PLAY IT ALL NIGHT LONG
 IT WAS ALL WE KNOW AND EASY TOO
SO WE WOULDN'T GET IT WRONG
ALL WE DID WAS BEND THE STRING LIKE... HEY!

DOWN IN JOES GARAGE
WE DIDN'T HAVE NO DOPE OR LSD
BUT A COUPLA QUARTSA BEER
WOULD FIX IT SO THE INTONATION WOULD
NOT OFFEND YER EAR
AND THE SAME OLD CHORDS GOING OVER AND OVER
BECAME A SYMPHONY
WE WOULD PLAY IT AGAIN N AGAIN AND AGAIN
CAUSE IT SOUNDED GOOD TO ME
ONE MORE TIME

WE COULD JAM IN JOE'S GARAGE
HIS MAMA WAS SCREAMING "TURN IT DOWN"
WE WAS PLAYING THE SAME OLD SONG
IN THE AFTERNOON AND SOMETIMES WE WOULD
PLAY IT ALL NIGHT LONG
IT WAS ALL WE KNOW AND EASY TOO
SO WE WOULDN'T GET IT WRONG
EVEN IF YOU PLAYED IT ON THE SAXOPHONE

WE THOUGHT WE WAS PRETTY GOOD
WE TALKED ABOUT KEEPING THE BAND TOGETHER
AND WE FIGURED THAT WE SHOULD
 CAUSE ABOUT THIS TIME WE WAS GETTING THE EYE
 FROM THE GIRLS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
THEY'D ALL COME OVER AND DANCE AROUND LIKE...

SO WE PICKED OUT A STUPID NAME
HAD SOME CARDS PRINTED UP FOR A COUPLA BUCKS
AND WE WAS ON OUR WAY TO FAME
GOT MATCHING SUITS AND BEATLES BOOTS
AND A SIGH ON THE BACK OF THE CAR
AND WE WAS READY TO WORK IN A GO-GO BAR
"ONE TWO THREE FOUR, LETS SEE IF YOU GOT SOME
MORE

PEOPLE SEEMED TO LIKE OUR SONG
THEY GOT UP AND DANCED AND MAKE A LOT A
NOISE
AND IT WASN'T 'FORE VERY LONG
A GUY FROM A COMPANY WE CAN'T NAME
SAID WE OUGHT TO TAKE HIS PEN
AND SIGN ON THE LINE FOR A REAL GOOD TIME
BUT HE DIDN'T TELL US WHEN
THESE "GOOD TIMES" WOULD BE SOMETHING'
THAT WAS REALLY HAPPENING
SO THE BAND BROKE UP , AND IT LOOKS LIKE
WE WILL NEVER PLAY AGAIN

GUESS YOU ONLY GET ONE CHANCE IN LIFE
TO PLAY A SONG THAT GOES LIKE . . .

"TURN IT DOWN
I HAVE CHILDREN SLEEPING HERE"

WELL THE YEARS WAS ROLLING BY
HEAVY METAL AND GLITTER ROCK
HAD CAUGHT  THE PUBLIC EYE
SNOTTY BOY WITH LIPSTICK ON
WAS REALLY FLYING HIGH
AND THEN THEY GOT THAT DISCO THING
AND NEW WAVE CAME ALONG
AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I THOUGHT THE TIME
HAD COME FOR THAT OLD SONG
WE USED TO PLAY IN JOE'S GARAGE
AND IF I AM NOT WRONG
YOU WILL SOON BE DANCING TO . . .

WELL THE YEARS WAS ROLLING  BY . . .
