Gimme My Walkman Lyrics

I bought a Bridge Over Troubled Water cassette
And I listened to it ten thousand times
To and from high school in my pickup truck
I was swimming in Paul Simonʼs rhymes
Cause when you find a friend in need
I tell you, you find a friend indeed
Gimme my Walkman, Mom
Please I need it bad
That way I donʼt have to listen to
The fights you have with dad

Sail on silver girl
Your time has surely come
Strike up the grand piano
Bang the big bass drum
Iʼm gonna blow this joint
Iʼm gonna be a star
Cause I donʼt wanna drive a taxi
I donʼt wanna tend a bar
So find me a good drum solo
Find one pretty quick
Maybe give me Ginger Baker, Keith Moon
Or give me John Bonhamʼs sticks
Call up a little thunder
Help me drown these noises out
Thereʼs only one sound I hate worse
Than when they scream and shout
