Day Dig
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There was a big time rock'n roll star that didn't know he couldn't stay big
And all the kids put him down cause he didn't have a sound that they dig
Holes appeared in the soles of his rock'n roll shoes
He got the liquid in his do's the rhythm and blues
He got down on his luck had to hang it all up and get a day gig
And just a little while back he had the number one act he did a fine show
But after just a while he went entirely out of style where did the time go
Teen idol magazine never puts him in the news
He never gets to see his name in record reviews
He did is best to get hip but refused to take a trip and let his mind blow
When the day gig bell sounds he drops down
He picks up his cards and punches them clocks
He rushes to the studio to record a demo album
Living mono rock and folk and flop
Doo-wop doo-wop
He didn't save a single set can't imagine where it went and now he's busted
But the record company cap knows exactly where it's at he can't be trusted
So all he's got to show for his million selling disc
Is the gold plated record but now he insists
That the record on the wall wasn't really gold at all because it rusted
Umbar umbar umbar who-de-di...
Doo-wop doo-wop

Can't imagine where it went and now he's busted
But the record company cap knows exactly where it's at
He can't be trusted
So all he's got to show for his million selling disc
Is the gold plated record but now he insists
That the record on the wall wasn't really gold at all cause it rusted
Umbar umbar who-de-di...
