BINGO'S BOOGIE by Tony Head
This is an old song of mine. A masterpiece, if ever there was one. Recorded by myself.
Once I was a magic cat,
Pulling rabbits out of my hat.
Then I turned into a dog.
Next I'll be the Mighty Hedgehog.
The Mighty Hedgehog is something to be.
He carries down kittens stuck in a tree.
He pulls drowning badgers out of the stream.
Explains to gorillas that life's but a dream.
Who's afraid of the Mighty Hedgehog?
The Endless Fox and the Multiple Frog.
They plot and conspire to have him retire.
But he's got a knack for coming right back.
The Mighty Hedgehog is something to be.
He'll sell LSD to you almost for free (well, pretty cheap, anyway)
He saves Piccadilly from ruthless wild pigeons.
Explains to chipmunks about God and religion.
Pretty squirrels all agog,
Crazy 'bout the Mighty Hedgehog.
But he's very modest, he is even shy.
When asked where he's from, he points to the sky.
The Mighty Hedgehog is something to be,
He personally knows every fish in the sea.
He reads PG Wodehouse at night in his bed.
He listens to Yes, that's his favourite band.
Once I was a magic cat, etc.
