lyrics

The Roaring Boy

Gilda Gray danced the shimmy in the summer of ‘29
Though incidents and accidents were breaking in the brine
Actresses are living in my mind
Chorus lines are singing ‘please be kind’

You can have the world, and me
I will become the Roaring Boy
I will become the Roaring Boy

Karloff tried to kiss me when he was still alive
Through acetate and half inch tape we struggle to survive
Vampire bats are living in my mind
Try to love me darling, please be kind

The big show saw to Bobby, in the summer of ‘45
Fearlessness and drunkenness had never left his side
Fortresses are flying through the sky
Destiny is cruel, please be kind
