Mickey Marmalade

Gilby Clarke


Remember Mickey Marmalade 
Was a glitter symphony 
Bellbottomoed roadie 
A pacified pretty thing

Ziggy had a super heart but the rock star 
Got really bored so he sold his soul 
To the Music Television whores

Empty bottle robots 
Whacked out noisy folk songs 
Leading from the back 
But nowhere to go, no, yeah

The jeepster was the boogie guru 
The groover, grooved to the world 
His tiger Les Paul was 
Poetry to the blues

Empty bottle robots 
Whacked out noisy folk songs 
Leading from the back 
But nowhere to go, no, yeah
