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 »

Well I`m gonna raise a fuss
And I`m gonna raise a holler
About workin` all summer
Just tryin` to earn a dollar
Well, I went to my boss
Who governs me
He said, "No, dice, bud
You gotta work late"

Sometime I wonder
What I`m gonnna do
There ain`t no cure
For the summertime blues

Well, my mom and papa told me
Now you better earn some money
If one of you is gonna go
Ridin` next Sunday
Well, I didn`t go to work
I told my boss I was sick
He said, "You can`t use the car
`Cause you didn`t work a lick"

Sometime I wonder
What I`m gonnna do
There ain`t no cure
For the summertime blues

Gonna save two weeks
Gonna have a fine vacation
Gonna take my problem
To the United Nations
Well, I went to my congressman
He sent me back a note
It said, "I``d like to help you, hon
But you`re too young to vote"

Sometime I wonder
What I`m gonnna do
There ain`t no cure
For the summertime blues

Now there ain`t no cure
For the summertime blues
Now there ain`t no cure
For the summertime blues
