Biography

Initially a British psychedelic folk duo called [a=Tyrannosaurus Rex] fronted by guitarist/vocalist [a=Marc Bolan] (born Mark Feld) with [a=Steve Peregrin Took] (born Stephen Porter). They became glam rock pioneers and shortened their name to T. Rex in 1970. They had a series of top ten hits in the UK, including four number one singles. In America, the group only had one major hit - "Bang a Gong (Get It On)". They retained a following until Marc Bolan's death in 1977.

LYRICS

Ow!
Tenement lady, stone drug mama
Street hawk stone heart
Mind that swiftly falls apart *
Sudden Sid Groove Lid, sharp as the dark park
Pickle pump peeper
Mind that swiftly falls apart
Count Lurch Hearse Head
Prince of the snick snacks
Got a pierced ear mind fear
of the sailors with their perfume
Molly Mouse dream talk, gin house milk shake
She steals my magazines
She's a lazer-lipped lover yeah!
* Repeat
Oh my darling there are many ways to love you
Underneath sheets of silk I slyly peep at you
People on the street call out your name
The giants and the dwarfs all call the same
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh my darling there are many ways to view you
To me your almost like a hammer and screw
People on the street call out your name
The giants and the dwarfs all call the same
Oh yeah, oh yeah oh
