Tenement Funster - BBC Session / October 16th 1974, Maida Vale 4 Studio
My new purple shoes
They've been amazing the people next door
And my rock 'n roll 45's
Have been enraging the folks on the lower floor
I've got a way with the girls on my block
Tryin' my best to be a real individual
And when we go down to Smokies and rock
They line up like it's some kind of ritual
Ooh, give me a good guitar
And you can say that my hair's a disgrace
Or just find me an open car
I'll make the speed of light outta this place
I like the good things in life
But most of the best things ain't free
So this same situation, just cuts like a knife
When you're young, and you're poor, and you're crazy
(Crazy, young and you're crazy, young and you're crazy)
Ooh, give me a good guitar
And you can say that my hair's a disgrace
Or just find me an open car
I'll make the speed of light outta this place
They've been amazing the people next door
And my rock 'n roll 45's
Have been enraging the folks on the lower floor
I've got a way with the girls on my block
Tryin' my best to be a real individual
And when we go down to Smokies and rock
They line up like it's some kind of ritual
Ooh, give me a good guitar
And you can say that my hair's a disgrace
Or just find me an open car
I'll make the speed of light outta this place
I like the good things in life
But most of the best things ain't free
So this same situation, just cuts like a knife
When you're young, and you're poor, and you're crazy
(Crazy, young and you're crazy, young and you're crazy)
Ooh, give me a good guitar
And you can say that my hair's a disgrace
Or just find me an open car
I'll make the speed of light outta this place
