Dr Hook and the Medicine show
When I was young I used to love this band. It was with Mad magazine, Science fiction and comics one of the foundations for my english language.
I remember when I was with a friend driving around in his car and singing Dr Hook and the Medicin Show loud in the car and the sourrounding thought we were crazy. He was my best friend and we had a lot in common. We loved the same music, Dr Hook... Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel and other. When then Punkrock came it washed me away with all that brilliant music and attitude they had. But every time I hear some of that old time music It make me happy and fills me with memorys
Today I was surfing around on You Tube and found a huge amount of videos from this great band that I have completly forgot. Songs like Cover of the Rolling Stones, Pennecillin Penny, Sylvias Mother, Only Sixteeen and my alltime favorites, Freakers Ball and Makin´It Natural.
I have to say that the more I use You Tube the more I start liking it. It is a great source of memorys.
Here listen to the music and sing along. Enjoy.
Freakin' at The Freakers BallC'mon babies, grease your lips
Grab your hats, and swing your hips.
Don't forget to bring your whips.
We're goin' to the Freakers Ball.
Blow your whistle ,bang your gong ,
Roll up somethin' to take along.
Feels so good it must be wrong
Freakin' at the Freakers Ball.
All the fags and dykes, they're boogyin' together
Leather freaks are dressed in all kinds of leather.
The greatest of the Sadists and the Masochists, too,
Screamin' "Please hit me" and "I'll hit you".
F.B.I. dancin' with the junkies ,
All the Straights swingin' with the Funkies
'Cross the floor and up the wall
Freakin' at the Freakers Ball.
Everybody is lovin' each other --
Brother with sister - son with mother.
Smear my body up with butter,
And take me to the Freakers Ball.
So pass that roach please and pour the wine --
I'll kiss yours if you'll kiss mine.
I'm gonna boogie til I go blind --
Freakin' at the Freakers Ball.
Black ones, white ones, yellow and red ones --
Necropheliacs lookin' for dead ones.
The greatest of the Sadists and the Masochists, too --
Screaming' "Please hit me" and "I'll hit you".
Everybody ballin' in batches --
Pyromaniacs strikin' matches.
I'm gonna itch me where it scratches --
Freakin' at the Freakers Ball, y'all
Freakin' at the Freakers Ball.
