Song lyrics

Melle Mel and Richard Hell were dancing at the Taco Bell
When someone heard a rebel yell, I think it was an infidel.
Adam Ant and Robert Plant, defender of a psycho fan,
And used to buy Ulysses Grant to record at the Record Plant.
Islamabad is on the nod, Havana at the riot squad,
And if you want to be a Mod, you'll have to meet me at the quad.

You got the best of my loco,
I'll take the rest of your showboat.
You got the best of my Yoko,
I'll take the rest of your low note.

Parliamеnt's Atomic Dog, their hats were filling up with fog,
Wе talk about the life and death of everything in analog,
The seventies were such a win, singing the Led Zeppelin,
Lizzy looking mighty thin, the Thompsons had another twin.
I thought I won the lottery, the numbers never thought of me,
Ramones had a lobotomy, so spin me like a pottery.

I will be your poster child,
You know the world is ours for a little while,
And then I will be your poster child tonight, ow,
La-da-da-da, bum-bum-budum.

A funky piece, the Sandinista, me and minor Mona Lisa,
Judas Priest has whipped the beast, the mother love was named Teresa,
Bubble gum, I come bazooka, dirty dandy nana-looka,
Smoke banana in your hookah, now I know the band is ruca.
Bernie Mac and Caddyshack were dusty as the bric-a-brac,
And if you ask me for the time, I'll tell you that the future's back.

You got the best of my loco,
I'll take the rest of your showboat.
You got the best of my Yoko,
I'll take the rest of your low note.

Steve Miller and Duran Duran, the Joker dancing in the sand,
Van Morrison, the Astral man, the festival of hurricanes,
Speak of Chico and the Man, the silence of a certain lamb,
MC5 kick out the jam, a poncho full of contraband,
Dairy Queen was on the scene in every cutie magazine,
The Motörhead and mystic queen, my misdemeanor Valvoline.

I will be your poster child,
You know the world is ours for a little while,
And then I will be your poster child tonight,
La-da-da-da, bum-bum-budum.

You got me on this,
But then I can't get off
With no one else but you.
You turn me on, too,
Well, then I can't get up, ooh,
For no one else but you.

CREEM magazine, A Love Supreme, the ballad of a Billie Jean,
And now we know the status quo, but God would never save the Queen,
Dave Mushegain, Copenhagen, copper ghost of Ronald Reagan,
Dollar savers, Flavor Flav, the cosmic moves are power saving,
And my fist a double kissed unlisted number purplemist and
Chubby Checker do the twist, and everyone's a narcissist.

You got the best of my loco,
I'll take the rest of your showboat.
You got the best of my Yoko,
I'll take the rest of your low note.

The waterbed was taking meds, a beaver with the house of red,
A fatty for the Natty Dread, a pocket full of talking heads,
M.I.A.'s making Paper Planes, addiction to the days of Janes,
My slurpie's made of Purple Rain, ten fingers in the lion's mane.
Giant squid, Karate Kid, Sid Vicious in the katydid,
The planet that we must forbid, the English speakers in Madrid.

I will be your poster child,
You know the world is ours for a little while,
And then I will be your poster child tonight,
La-da-da-da, bum-bum-budum.

I will be your poster child,
You know the world is ours for a little while,
And then I will be your poster child tonight,
La-da-da-da, bum-bum-budum.
