T. Rex

T. Rex were a British rock band, formed in 1967 by singer/songwriter and guitarist Marc Bolan. The band formed as Tyrannosaurus Rex, releasing four underground folk albums under the name. Tony Visconti (their producer for several albums) claimed in a documentary on the band that he had taken to using the abbreviated term "T. Rex" as a shorthand, something that initially irritated Bolan, who gradually came around to the idea and officially shortened the band's name to "T. Rex" at roughly the same time they started having big hits (shortly after going electric). more »

In the moonlight
Fighting with the night
It's a rip-off
Kissing all the slain
I'm bleeding in the rain

It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off
Rocking in the nude
I'm feeling such a dude

It's a rip-off
Dancing in the dark
With the tramps in the park

It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off
See your baby's stud

Sliding in the mud
It's a rip-off
Bleached on the beach
I want to tickle your peach

It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off
See the girl dance
In her man-skin pants

It's a rip-off
Terraplane Tommy
Wants to bang your gong

It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off
Gypsy girl's good
People treat her like a fool

It's a rip-off
The President's weird
He's got a burgundy beard

It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off
I'm the King of the highway

I'm the Queen of the hop
You should see me
At the Governors ball
Doing the rip-off bop
I'm a social person

I'm the creature in disguise
There's a man with a whip

On his silver lip
Living inside my eyes
I'm the cat from the alley
I'm the fleetfoot vodoo man
There's very little that's ever said

All of which I understand
Caught like a skunk
In space and time
It's a rip-off
If it's her's

Well it must be mine
It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off
