Prefab Sprout - The King of Rock ’n’ Roll - 1988 performance
Prefab Sprout - The King of Rock ’n’ Roll, as performed for "Wired" May 13th 1988, I recorded this on VHS, then dubbed the full show complete with all commercials to Betamax, not sure why I did this, it was so long ago. The date stated on screen during the video is incorrect, a type error.
Lyrics
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
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
And I'm 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 (la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque (the king of rock 'n' roll)
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque (la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque (the king of rock 'n' roll)
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
