The Brillcreem Blues

© 1993 A Toone (lyric of 2nd verse from the poem Young Glutton  by Arthur Rimbaud) As performed by The Bucktooth Varmints

Slicked back top cat

Hangin' by the laundromat

Cool look, hang back

C'mon girl before I crack

Dog fight, cat bite

Is it the moon or just the night?

Big stares everywhere

Let's drive fast til we don't care

CHORUS

              I can't go out tonite, my life's in a state

              Wanna break free before it's too late

              Gimme some room to pick and choose

              Ain't nuthin wrong with me 'cept the

              Brillcreem Blues, Brillcreem blues  

Two sick young fruits

Drastic pursuits

BIG THICK BLACK BOOTS

Paul's trick just suits

"Don't kick, just lick"

Disputes

"Some prick, come quick!"

He shoots, and he shoots, and he shoots...

CHORUS

Guitar solo

CHORUS

Slicked back,

Brillcreem Blues

Hangin' by the laundromat

With the Brillcreem Blues
