WWTBAM Bored

Charles Fox has abandoned me, so I'll do it myself...

SHOW BIZ KIDS

CHORUS:
While the poor people sleepin'
With the shade on the light
While the poor people sleepin'
All the stars come out at night
After closing time
At the Guernsey Fair
I detect the El Supremo
From the room at the top of the stairs
Well I've been around the world
And I've been in the Washington Zoo
And in all my travels
As the facts unravel
I've found this to be true

CHORUS

They got the house on the corner
With the rug inside
They got the booze they need
All that money can buy
They got the shapely bods
They got the Steely Dan T-shirt
And for the coup-de-gras
They're outrageous

CHORUS

Show biz kids making movies
Of themselves you know they
Don't give a fuck about anybody else

CHORUS

I figured us folks who were older than dirt would get it. Charles "Beast" Fox knows approximately 4 songs, all of which he used repeatedly during LS . (Ha, beast--this is what happens when you got to lunch! We diss you! )

My personal Countdown to Ecstasy is at 24 hours now. Got my boarding passes.....

I'm no Chucky Fox but try these lyrics:

Goin' To Vegas - Jimmy Ray

Aaaah, shakey shakey shake a-shake shakey
Shake, shake a-shake a-shake a-shake shake shake
I said shakey shakey shake a-shake shakey
Shake, shake a-shake a-shake a-shake shake shake

I wanna leave this town, this place
I'm tired of people laughing in my face
I've gotta get away, get away
I've gotta get away to a better place
Uh-huh, mmm hmm, well alright, uh-huh
There's no time, don't wait
Just get down to the silver state and go wild, wild
Go wild, wild
I go wild in the country bop, bop
Ah-yeah, mmm hmm, well alright, I say
Out of sight, well ah-yeah, uh-huh, well
alright, alright, ah-yeah, ah-yeah

Hey hoh! Where ya gonna go?
Well, I'm goin' to Vegas
Hey hoh! Where ya gonna go?
Well, I'm goin' to Vegas, Nevada
To raise the game I've got to get to Vegas
Hey hoh! Where ya gonna go?

Aaaah, shakey shakey shake a-shake shakey
Shake, shake a-shake a-shake a-shake shake shake
I said shakey shakey shake a-shake shakey
Shake, shake a-shake a-shake a-shake shake shake

Just pick up the dice, hey and shake
And then pray to God that you get the breaks
And then roll, roll until it takes away your soul
Well alright, mmm hmm, ah-yeah, uh-huh, ah-yeah
If you can't unload your jacks
Just grab the chips and then hit the tracks
A big fat cat with a baseball cap say
'Take me right back to the track, Jack!'
Ah-yeah, mmm hmm, well alright, I say
Out of sight, well ah-yeah, uh-huh, well
alright, alright, ah-yeah, ah-yeah

Hey hoh! Where ya gonna go?
Well, I'm goin' to Vegas
Hey hoh! Where ya gonna go?
Well, I'm goin' to Vegas, Nevada
To raise the game I've got to get to Vegas
Hey hoh! Where ya gonna go?

Shake!

So pick up the dice and shake and then roll
(Roll, roll!)
Just pick up the dice and shake and then roll
(Roll, roll!)
Just pick up the dice
(pick it up, pick it up now!)
I said pick up the dice
(pick it up, pick it up now!)
Just pick up the dice (pick it up!)
And shake!
Aaaaah, baby let's go

Hey hoh! Where ya gonna go?
I'm goin' to Vegas
Hey hoh! Where ya gonna go?
I'm goin' to Vegas, Nevada
To raise the game I've got to get to Vegas
Play it again! Play it again! I'm goin' to Vegas Hey hoh! Where d'ya wanna gonna go?
Yeah! I'm goin' to Vegas
Hey hoh! Where d'ya gonna go?
I'm goin' to Vegas, Nevada
To raise the game I've got to get to Vegas

Roll, roll
Roll. roll
Where ya gonna go?

Gosh!

Are we gonna get reports from the field or are you going to follow that "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" motto?

At least I only give you an hour to torture me. We'll have plenty of time to drag your ass through the wringer while you're gone....

I don't think LB paid any attention to last season, but he'll never forget Season 3! We need to have a reunion. I wonder if Diana DiGarmo still has the hots for me....?

Sorry, I WAS singin' em, I guess I wasn't loud enough.

Trivia--that's Rick Derringer ("Rock & Roll Hootchie Koo", "Hang on Sloopy" as the leader of The McCoys) playing slide guitar on the track.
