Jockie Cockduster and the Velcro Effect - Lionel & the Search for the Holy Gruel

Lionel Forms the Drift

My name's Lionel, I've been kicked out the Gravey
By Mustang and the boys
I've got to try to form my own band
So I can make a hell of a noise
I think I'm gonna ask Beanie to sing
And Dave The Rave to play bass
My friend Kwite will play drums
Hey man, it's gonna be ace

I've got us a gig at the Cueball
We'll have to practice to be ready to play live
But Kwite's garage is now out of bounds
Cos the last time we practiced the cops arrived
I'm not allowed a drum kit in my house
Not even for a few days
The last time I tried my mum went ballistic
And she won't change her luddite ways

We're forming a group and it's called The Drift
We make a noise that the neighbours can't stand
With Beanie and Dave and Kwite on the drums
We're gonna be a hell of a band
We're gonna be ace
We're gonna be ace
We're gonna shake our punky rock in your face
We're gonna be ace
We're gonna be ace
Until the police arrive at Kwite's place
We're gonna be ace
We're gonna be ace
We're gonna shake our punky rock in your face
We're gonna be ace
We're gonna be ace
Until the police arrive at Kwite's place
