Tenement Funster (BBC Session, October 1974)

My new purple shoes Been amazin' the people next door And my rock 'n roll 45's Been enragin' the folks on the lower floor I've got a way with the girls on my block Try my best 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 And this same situation, just cuts like a knife When you're young, and you're poor, 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
