Gino Bambino (Gino and the Goons)
SPB: Who is your favorite lyricist?
Gino:
I walk 47 miles of barbed wire,
I use a cobra-snake for a necktie,
I got a brand new house on the roadside,
Made from rattlesnake hide,
I got a brand new chimney made on top,
Made out of a human skull,
Now come on take a walk with me, Arlene,
And tell me, who do you love?
Who do you love?
Tombstone hand and a graveyard mind,
Just 22 and I don't mind dying.
Who do you love?
I rode around the town, use a rattlesnake whip,
Take it easy Arlene, don't give me no lip,
Who do you love?
Night was dark, when the sky was blue,
Down the alley, the ice-wagon flew,
Hit a bump, and somebody screamed,
You shoulda heard just what I seen.
Who do you love?
Arlene took me by my hand,
And she said ooh wee Bo, you know I understand.
Who do you love?
