Roadracers - Damon Alexander and the Ten Cent Rentals

from "The Thursday Triple Feature" 2006
Lyrics:
Dude is a rockabilly rebel and his lifestyle is 50's cool
Smoking, drinking, and road racing, Donna's parents don't approve
One night in a dog fight, a mishap with Dude's cigarette burned off Teddy Leather's girlfriends hair
And Teddy's gang has vowed reprisal, Sarge's son won't be made a fool

Dude Delaney is a hood, road racer
With his girlfriend Donna and his best friend the Nixer
The police sergeant wants to cause Dude trouble
Will he choose to join the band or Teddy Leather's rumble

A ketchup bottle to the back of the head, pushes Dude's calm to the brink
And a wig malfunction happenstanced at the local roller skating rink
At a showing of Invasion of the Body Snatchers Dude will realize that girls aren't all they seem
And Donna has to be reminded, rock n' roll is not her dream

Dude Delaney is a hood, road racer
With his girlfriend Donna and his best friend the Nixer
The police sergeant wants to cause Dude trouble
Will he choose to join the band or Teddy Leather's rumble

Teddy's packing more than his usual switchblade
And the bands lip syncing sock hop, Johnny has lost his way
And the police sergeant has gone on the war path
When he hears about the shootings and the small town bloodbath
