Joel Plaskett - The Wizard of Taz lyrics

[Joel Plaskett - The Wizard of Taz lyrics]

We used to walk downtown
Instead of taking the bus to save our money
For records and donuts

At Dischord and track
Where the future took shape
In the days of wine and vinyl and tape

But was only one king
We first found him on Queen
He had to deal with us jokers
We were fourteen

Rings, gold chains you would pay him in cash
That’s the power that rock and roll has

If you wanna know why we don’t play jazz
Picture Switzer, lads
He was The Wizard of Taz

If you’re listening to The Killer


What was the line I had? Picture Switzer as
The Wizard of Taz

The Wizard moved down from Queen
Onto Argyle street
Bеfore the Herald camе down
And the rents got too steep

Went from Market to Gottingen
Just trying to find a groove
But the landlords kept
The Wizard on the move

If you wanna know why we don’t play jazz
Picture Switzer, lads
He was The Wizard of Taz

If you’re listening to The Killer
Come on, comrades picture Switzer as
The Wonderful Wizard of Taz

Now Bob is gone but his memory lives on
10 thousand commandments 45 rpm

There will never be a guy
Like The Wizard again
He only liked Roy on Sun
If rock and roll is your holy scripture

Christ Almighty, picture Switzer
The Wonderful Wizard of Taz
