BOLAN FOREVER

[hearditman]

Best track on Tanx.

[DAVWAVE]

The cool drum intro was 100 per cent the idea of Bill Legend, in fact Marc on another recording said, "what are you doing to me Bill, you sneak those in on me, OK, we will keep it in." 

Sweet, intro and excellent drumming all the way thru.

Your mama said: clean out your head, boy, don't lay nothin on my child.

Your friends they said: your head is in a noose, boy, lay some boogie on our minds.

And we stood like the rapids, and I was like a new-born child.

Your father said: clean out your head, boy, go kick cans along the street.

Your father said: clean out your toes, Rose, and lick some uncooked meat.

And we stood like the rapids, and I was like a new-born child.

Your mama said: my babe is not free, boy, but I'm loose about midnight.

Your father said: your sister's a groove, boy, what I said, it just ain't right.

But then I stood like the rapids, and they were like a new-born child.

Won't You Tell Me Why?
