Biography

[b]Note: This page is for [u]the band[/u] '[i]Alice Cooper[/i]'.[/b] Post-1974 solo releases and writing credits by [u]the individual artist[/u] '[i]Alice Cooper[/i]' should be entered under '[a=Alice Cooper (2)]', as should all pre-1974 individual credits for '[i]Alice Cooper[/i]' on the band's releases. - – — — – - Founded as "The Earwigs" in the spring of 1964, the group featured [a=Vincent Furnier] [later known as [a=Alice Cooper (2)]] on vocals, [a=Dennis Dunaway] on bass, and [a=Glen Buxton] on guitar. They were shortly after joined by [a=John Tatum] on rhythm guitar and [a=John Speer] on drums and became [a=Spiders] in the fall of 1965. [a=Michael Bruce] replaced Tatum on guitar in 1966. The band relocated to Los Angeles in March 1967, changed their name to [a=The Nazz] in April. Fellow Phoenix musician and friend [a=Neal Smith] moved in with the band in September 1967 and replaced Speer as drummer later that fall. By March of 1968 the band changed their name again, becoming [a=Alice Cooper] to prevent confusion with [a=Todd Rundgren]'s group [a=Nazz]. Lead singer Furnier took on the identity of Alice Cooper onstage and the band went on to become one of the most popular rock bands of the early seventies.  Their overblown stage presence basically created shock rock and was hugely influential on the rock scene that followed. The band split in 1974, initially taking a hiatus with several members working on solo projects. Furnier legally changed his name to Alice Cooper in 1975, and launched a successful solo career.  Bruce, Dunaway and Smith went on to form [a=Billion Dollar Babies], named after the most popular Alice Cooper album.

LYRICS

Well I'm runnin' through the world with a gun in my back tryin' to catch a ride in a cadillac
Thought that I was livin' but you can't really tell been tryin' to get away from that success smell
You know I need a houseboat and I need a plane I need a butler and a trip to Spain
I need everything the world owes me I tell that to myself and I agree
I'm caught in a dream so what you don't know what I'm goin' through
I'm right in between so I'll I'll just play along with you
Well I'm runnin' through the world with a gun in my back tryin' to catch a ride in that cadillac
Thought I was livin' but you can't never tell what I thought was heaven turned out to be hell
Whoa whoa when you see me with a smile on my face
Whoa whoa then you'll know I'm a mental case whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
I'm caught in a dream so what I don't know what I'm going through
I'm right in between so I'll I'll just play along with you
Whoa whoa ooh ooh ooh aah aah aah aah oo oo oo oo oo oo
