LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE KING OF ROCK 'N' ROLL/PREFAB SPROUT

All my lazy teenage boasts are now high precision ghosts
And they're coming round the track to haunt me
When she looks at me and laughs I remind her of the facts
I'm the king of rock'n roll completely
Up from suede shoes to my baby blues

Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque

The dream helps you forget you ain't never danced a step
You were never fleet of foot, hippy
All the pathos you can keep for the children in the street
For the vision I have had is sweeping
New broom, this room, sweep it clean

Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
High kickin' dandy, fine figure fine cut a fine figure fine oh yeah
Long legged candy, fine figure fine cut a fine figure fine oh yeah

Now my rhythm ain't so hot, but it's the only friend I've got
I'm the king of rock'n roll completely
All the pretty birds have flown now I'm dancing on my own
I'm the king of rock'n roll completely
Up from, suede shoes to my baby blues

Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
High kickin' dandy, fine figure fine cut a fine figure fine oh yeah
Long legged candy, fine figure fine cut a fine figure fine oh yeah
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
