(A Bolanic revision of Orpheus Descending) Marc Bolan- guitar and vocal Herbie Flowers- bass Tony Newman- drums Dino Dines-keyboards and synthesizer Steve Harley- vocals Prince of Players, Pawn of none Born with steel reins on the heart of the Sun Gypsy explorer of the New Jersey Heights Exalted companion of cocaine nights ** óCos heá´s a Dandy in the Underworld Dandy in the Underworld When will he come up for air, Will anybody ever care * At an old eighteen exiled he was To the deserted kingdoms of a mythical Oz Distraction he wanted, to destruction he fell Now he forever stalks the ancient Mansions of hell * Repeat Now his lovers have left him And his youthá´s ill spent He cries in the dungeons and tries to repent But change is a monster and changing is hard But heá´ll freeze away his summers in his Underground yard * Repeat ** Repeat Repeat twice Aus Songtexte Mania
