Dandy lyrics

Something is happening – Mr. Jones

My brother says you're better than the Beatles ‘n' the Stones

Saturday nite ‘n' Sunday morning

You turned us into ‘Heroes' – can you hear the heroes sing?

Dandy – you're the prettiest star

There ain't no life on Mars

But we always thought there might be

Dandy – you opened up the door

You left us wanting more

And then we took the last bus home.

Who let the Genie – outta the lamp?

And Little Lord Fauntleroy – who let him outta his amp?

Saturday nite ‘n' Sunday morning

Trevor's getting' bolder – ‘n' Woody loves to hit things.

Dandy – the world was black ‘n' white

You showed us what it's like

To live inside a rainbow

Dandy – you thrilled us to the core

You left us wanting more

And then we took the last bus home.

You beat up Goliath – you had it all

The voice, the look, the songs that shook

The gift of the gab ‘n' the gall

Saturday nite ‘n' Sunday morning

All we had to look forward to was the weekend

You made our lives worth living.

Dandy - you're still the prettiest star

There ain't no life on Mars

But we always thought there might be

Dandy – You took us to the fair

Cabaret Voltaire – and then we caught the last bus home.

Dandy – we've waited long enough

They should put a statue up

In Piccadilly Circus

Dandy – you blew us all away

Outta the drab ‘n' the grey

And then we caught the last bus home.

Dandy – the keeper of the flame

We won't see your like again

No, Dandy was a one-off

Dandy – look what you've become

I guess I owe you one

So thanks for the memories.
