Jeepster Lyrics

Lyric discussion by FranknFurter 

Cover art for Jeepster lyrics by T. Rex

Its a metaphor, a Jeepster is a charming average guy, willing to go anywhere for the object of his affection--i.e. a "jaguar" (hot girl).

@FranknFurter : Precisely. She's got the sleek lines of a Jaguar, and he's nothing more than a dumpy little Jeepster...but he'll do anything for her, 'cause that's all he's got.

Kinda like a glam-rock variation on Cole Porter's "You're the Top." Granted Porter's lyrics are also suffused with an idiosyncratic subtext. Some of them make this particular T.Rex song (by comparison) seem almost tame. But even though it's been a l-o-n-g time since 1934? Most folks still can't figure it what he was on about.
