Biography

Two south London fellows called [a=Alan Lancaster] (bass) and [a=Francis Rossi] (guitar - known as [a5373623] during the band's early years) founded the band in 1962. First name The Paladins soon changed to [a=The Spectres (2)] (another previously-documented early name, The Scorpions, is disputed). In 1966, the band changed their name to "The Traffic", shortly thereafter to [a=The Traffic Jam (2)]. The lineup consisted of Lancaster, Rossi, [a=John Coghlan] (drums) and [a=Roy Lynes] (keyboard). A year later, the band changed name once again to "The Status Quo". [a=Rick Parfitt] (guitar) joined the band. Their first hit record, "Pictures of Matchstick Men", was released. "The" was omitted from the name of the band in 1969, known thereafter as just "Status Quo"

LYRICS

Whatever you want
Whatever you like
Whatever you say
You pay your money
You take your choice
Whatever you need
Whatever you use
Whatever you win
Whatever you loose
You`re showing off
You`re showing out
You look for trouble
Turn around, give me a shout

I take it all
You squeeze me dry
And now today
You couldn`t even say goodbye

I could take you home
On the midnight train again
I could make an offer you can`t refuse

Whatever you want
Whatever you like
Whaterver you say
You pay your money
You take your choice
Whatever you need
Whatever you use
Whatever you win
Whatever you loose
You`re showing off
You`re showing out
You look for trouble
Turn around, give me a shout

I take it all
You squeeze me dry
And now today
You couldn`t even say goodbye

I could take you home
On the midnight train again
I could make an offer you can`t refuse

Whatever you want
Whatever you like
Whatever you say
You pay your money
You take your choice
Whatever you need
Whatever you use
Whatever you win
Whatever you loose
Whatever you want
