Joe’s Garage (Live At Mudd Club， NYC， May 8， 1980)歌词完整版
A boring old garage in a residential area with a teen-age band
Rehearsing in it
Joe
The main character in the central
Scrutinizer's special presentation
Sings to us of the trials and
Tribulations of garage-band husbandry
We take you now to a garage in canoga park
It wasn't very large
There was just enough room to cram the drums
In the corner over by the dodge
It was a fifty-four
With a mashed up door
And a cheesy little amp
With a sign on the front said fender champ
And a second hand guitar
It was a stratocaster with a whammy bar
At this point larry
A guy who will eventually give up music and
Earn a respectable living as a roadie for a group called toad-o
Joins in the song
We could jam in joe's garage
His mama was screamin'
His dad was mad
We was playin' the same old song
In the afternoon 'n' sometimes we would
Play it all night long
It was all we knew 'n' easy too
So we wouldn't get it wrong
All we did was bend the string like
Hey
Down in joe's garage
We didn't have no d**e or lsd
But a coupla quartsa beer
Would fix it so the intonation
Would not offend yer ear
And the same old chords goin' over 'n' over
Became a symphony
We would play it again 'n' again 'n' again
'Cause it sounded good to me
One more time
We could jam in joe's garage
His mama was screamin'
Turn it down
We was playing' the same old song
In the afternoon 'n' sometimes we would
Play it all night long
It was all we knew and easy too
So we wouldn't get it wrong
Even if you played it on a saxophone
We thought we was pretty good
We talked about keepin' the band together
'N' we figured that we should
'Cause about this time we was gettin' the eye
From the girls in the neighborhood
They'd all come over 'n' dance around
Like
Twenty teen-age girls dash
In and go stomp-clap
Stomp-clap-clap
So we picked out a stupid name
Had some cards printed up for a coupla bucks
'N' we was on our way to fame
Got matching suits 'n' beatle boots
'N' a sign on the back of the car
'N' we was ready to work in a go-go bar
One two three four
Let's see if you got some more
People seemed to like our song
They got up 'n' danced 'n' made a lotta noise
An' it wasn't 'fore very long
A guy from a company we can't name
Said we oughta take his pen
'N' sign on the line for a real good time
But he didn't tell us when
These good times would be somethin'
That was really happenin'
So the band broke up
An' it looks like
We will never play again
Guess you only get one chance in life
To play a song that goes like
Screams out the window
Turn it down
Turn it down
I have children sleeping here
Don't you boys know any nice songs
Well the years was rollin' by yeah
Heavy metal 'n' glitter rock
Had caught the public eye yeah
Snotty boys with lipstick on
Was really flyin' high yeah
'N' then they got that disco thing
'N' new wave came along
'N' all of a sudden I thought the time
Had come for that old song
We used to play in joe's garage
And if I am not wrong
You will soon be dancin' to
The white zone is
For loading and
Unloading only
If you
Gotta load or unload
Go to the white
Zone you'll love it
Well the years was rollin' by
Etc
I'm calling the police
I did it they'll be here shortly
This is the police
I'm not joking around anymore
We have the garage surrounded
If you give yourself up
We will not harm you
Or hurt you neither
You'll see them
This is the police
There they are they're coming
Give yourself up
We will not harm you
Listen to that mess would you
This is the police
Give yourself up
We have the garage surrounded
Everday this goes on around here
We will not harm you or maim you
Swat team 4 move in
He used cut my grass
He was very nice boy
That's disgusting
This is the central scrutinizer
That was joe's first confrontation with the law
Naturally we were easy on him
One of our friendly counselors gave him
A do-nut and told him to
Stick closer to church-oriented social activities
