Daddy in the Underworld Songtext
von T. Rex

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 T-Rex nights

′Cause he's a Dandy in the Underworld
Dandy in the Underworld
When will he come up for air? (Oh)
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

′Cause he's a Dandy in the Underworld
Dandy in the Underworld
When will he come up for air? (Oh)
Will anybody ever care?


Shada-bee-choo-bi-doo
Shada-bee-choo-bi-doo
Shada-bee-choo-bi-doo
Ah-ah-ah-ah

Shada-bee-choo-bi-doo
Shada-bee-choo-bi-doo
Shada-bee-choo-bi-doo
Ah-ah-ah-ah

'Cause he′s a Dandy in the Underworld
Dandy in the Underworld
When will he come up for air? (Oh)
Will anybody ever care?

Now all his lovers have left him
And his youth′s ill spent
He cries in the dungeons and tries to repent
But change is a monster and changing is hard
So he'll freeze away his summers in his underground yard

′Cause he's a Dandy in the Underworld
Dandy in the Underworld
When will he come up for air? (Oh)
Will anybody ever care?


′Cause he's a Dandy in the Underworld
Dandy in the Underworld
When will he come up for air? (Oh)
Will anybody ever care?

′Cause he's a Dandy in the Underworld
Dandy in the Underworld
When will he come up for air? (Oh)
Will anybody ever care?

'Cause he′s a Dandy in the Underworld
Dandy in the Underworld
When will he come up for air? (Oh)
Will anybody ever care?
