Golden Earring - Desperately Trying To Be Different Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • From the Album:
  • * Paradise in distress
  • Lizzy the lizard
  • Met an angry young snake
  • With forked-tongue grace
  • By the name of Jake:
  • A yellow eyed diamond back rattler
  • In the chill-out room
  • Of the ‘wildlife saloon'
  • She admired his skin,
  • Jake said it was fake
  • And Liz said: “who cares,
  • It don't really matter!”
  • A question to raise,
  • Why people these days
  • Like slaves to the craze
  • Are somehow hell bent
  • Yet always content with fortune's spent
  • On desperately tryin' to be different
  • Willy the weasel said
  • To Sammy the snitch
  • Let's go to the dogs
  • And bet on that *****
  • The greyhound
  • That runs like a panther
  • They made a big score,
  • Went to the Hi-fashion store
  • They bought two suits of shark skin
  • Furs, ermine and mink
  • All decked out for the next chapter
  • Nancy the nympho
  • Yelled at Lola La Leech
  • “I need a permanent wave
  • with lotsa bleach
  • I wanna look like a cheap German dancer”
  • She could pass for a queen
  • In a second hand dream
  • Inside the gloom of the ‘wildlife saloon'
  • The wolfwhistles
  • Sounded just like laughter
