Rob Schnapf - Throng of Blowtown lyrics

Bring out the Bushmills and bring on the band Tonight we'll dance and swing I'll sing you softly, my dear, take my hand And we'll toast to proposals and flings Bring out the jester and shoot out the lights Rattle your diamonds and pearls There's swill for the swine and pills for the mind More rhythm and booze for the girls And those were the days when it all made sense An awesome and glorious hoedown 54 studio discotheques To welcome in the throng of Blowtown Welcome to the throng of Blowtown When Sonny gets dumped, he'll see red for a while He's not the kind to get yellow Tonight, tonight, the Billys will fight Over copyright laws, but stay mellow And a typical day, you can hear someone say We need the groove to improve So go find Carol Kaye But she can't be found, she's gone underground In a carpal tunnel freeze-out, she's retirement-bound And those were the days when it all made sense An awesome and glorious hoedown 54 studio discotheques to welcome the throng of Blowtown Welcome in the throng of Blowtown Ain't nothing like Motown The throng of Blowtown
