Harris - Dickinson - Smith - Murray - McBrain)

We´re on a mission from Rod..

Life in the city living in L.A.
Is a long way from Huddersfield town
The back of the Rainbow´s a long way from heaven
But that´s where he get his pork pie
Limos and ladies they´re driving him crazy
Rugby and cricket´s unknown
Baseball and football they´re making him lazy
Your fan club says "Rodney come´ome"


The Sheriff of Huddersfield
Locked in his castle
Looked down on the Hollywood Hills
The Sheriff of Huddersfield
Locked in his castle
You´re our own Hot Rod on wheels


A good game of arrows a few dozen barrels
The Nautilus rusts in the yard
For Yorkshire he´s yearning but because he´s earning
He´ll always live in L.A.
A custom made wallet that stays in his pocket
And never comes out to pay bills
He´s winning at poker and playing the Joker
And always cheats when he deals


Hello, let me introduce myself
My name´s Rodney
I´m immensely strong
When I were a lad
I could lift up
Five navies on the end of a shovel
The reason I never took up martial arts
Is because I was fearsome
And probably
Kill everybody
That I came into contact with
I was phenomenally strong


Pride and ego
My lads,
Pride and ego
Is what makes the world rotate,
And everybody knows that
The centre of the Universe is Huddersfield
That´s why I don´t live there anymore
I live in Los Angeles
It´s great!... I think


Rufus the red has a crane by his bed
To wrench himself up in the morn´
But if you dare to tread at the foot of his bed
You´ll wish you´d never been born
A bear with a sore head we don´t mean your forehead
He slumbers for most of the day
Wide eyed and legless baked beans for breakfast
Your problem Rodney is L.A.


The sin shines all night!
