Well, Billy rapped all night
about his suicide
How he’d kick it in the head
when he was 25
Speed jive, don’t want to stay alive
When you’re 25
And Wendy’s stealing clothes
from Marks and Sparks
Freddy’s got spots from ripping off the stars
From his face
Funky little boat race
Television man is crazy
Saying we’re juvenile delinquent wrecks
Oh, man, I need TV when I got T. Rex
Brother, you guessed, I’m a dude, dad
All the young dudes
Carry the news
Boogaloo dudes
Carry the news
All the young dudes (I wanna hear you)
Carry the news (I wanna see you)
Boogaloo dudes (And I wanna relate to you)
Carry the news
Now Lucy looks sweet
’cause he dresses like a queen
But she can kick like a mule,
it’s a real mean team
But we can love
Oh yes, we can love
And my brother’s back at home
with his Beatles and his Stones
Never got it off on that revolution stuff
What a drag
Too many snags
Now I’ve drunk a lot of wine,
and I’m feeling fine
Gonna race some cat to bed
Is there concrete all around or is it in my head?
Brother you guessed
I’m a dude, dad
All the young dudes (I wanna hear you)
Carry the news (I wanna see you)
Boogaloo dudes (And I wanna relate to you)
Carry the news
All the young dudes (Have you heard the latest news?)
Carry the news (Everybody’s got the right to choose)
Boogaloo dudes (You can be a dude, dad)
Carry the news
All the young dudes (I’ve seen you on the street)
Carry the news (Sort of guy I’d like to meet)
Boogaloo dudes (You’re a dude, dad)
Carry the news
Hey, you!
You with the glasses!
I want you
I’m a dude, dad
