Beneath the bebop moon
I wanna croon with you
Beneath the Mambo Sun
I got to be the one with you
My life's a shadowless horse
If I can't get across to you
In the alligator rain
My heart's all pain for you
.
Girl you're good
And I've got wild knees for you
On a mountain range
I'm Dr.Strange for you
Upon a savage lake
Make no mistake I love you
I got a powder-keg leg
And my wig's all pooped for you
With my heart in my hand
I'm a hungry man for you
I got stars in my beard
And I feel weird for you
Beneath the bebop moon
I'm howling like a loon for you
Beneath the Mumbo Sun
I've got to be the one for you
He is in love with a girl and he just wants to be with her and he going crazy for her " howling like a loon for you " and the mambo sun well im not sure what that means but this song is amazing!!!!!!
Long live T.REX
This is the first T.Rex song I have ever heard, other than that damn Bang A Gong, anyway, I prefer to think of this as the first because it blew my fucking mind. This is probably the smoothest, coolest, thing I have ever heard.
I don't think it's about being in love with a specific person, or about a person at all... more an idea. I think people too often trivialize his lyrics, something he even commented on and seemed offended by. "My life's a shadowless horse if I can't get across to you"... Seems more about constructing this beautiful, absurd vision and the song is more about the journey to find or create it (beebop moon, powder keg legs, alligator rain, and all).
