There's a crazy sense of duty
as he licks between his fingers
wipes the ketchup from his face and hands
there's a strong determination
that his teachers never witnessed
never close enough to understand
he's like a bull just bred for fighting
he don't deliver nothing
outside the only thing that he knows
School report just says he's lazy
his brother says he's crazy
but take a look 'cos there he goes
Through the avenues of fashion
to the palaces of dreams
all the way down guitar street
To some guitars are hot-rods
all along the quest for macho
to others a would-be ticket out of town
for joe a six-string sten gun
in the 'panto-revolution'
and stevie's all just strictly sound
he's like a bull just bred for fighting
he don't deliver nothing
outside the only thing that he knows
School report just says he's lazy
his brother says he's crazy
but anyway take a look 'cos there he goes
through the avenues of fashion
to the palaces of dreams
all the way down guitar street
