The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band - Can Blue Men Sing the Whites ? lyrics

Stanshall I was lying in my bed, pull the silken sheets up tight I gotta keep me strength up, gotta do a show tonight I have a sip of coffee while I'm taking in the news Don't need to have a shave 'cause I gotta sing the blues Oh sh** man Then I think I'll get a ma**age, maybe, lose a little fat So I have to go downtown in my brand-new Cadillac My valet comes and dresses me, I light a big cigar Cos' I like to look like Nimrod when I'm riding in my car Can blue men sing the whites? Or are they hypocrites for singing: Whooo ooo oooH And now it's getting near the time I gotta make the scene I change out my dark-grey mohair suit, pull on my dirty jeans The band comes round to pick me up, I holler: "Hello boys I gotta mess my hair up and gotta make some noise." Can blue men sing the whites? Or are they hypocrites for singing: Whooo ooo oooH Ladies and gentlemen, we'd like to do you a little number now that's been very lucky for us from during the depression when everybody was very depressed O Lordy In dem cotton fields O Mama I mean it Somebody help me Tell me like it was Bugga-boo, buggaaah-whoo-oo
