...
With thirteen lovers I hid beneath the covers
Got staples in my hands for my time
With the radio low so the folks don't know
I proceed with my passion of crime...
And though somewhat obtuse, I've been told this abuse
Will more than likely make me go blind
But with a heart that's aching, it's a risk worth taking
'cause true love, they say, is so hard to find...
Why can't she see what she's doing to me
If that bandstand girl only was here
And I'm living the dream, getting lost on the screen
Doing Presley in front of the mirror...
Hanging around, getting high on the sounds
Of the ladies and electric guitars
Cross a double yellow line to who knows where
With six sets of glory a night in some bar

MSB is obscure. Rightfully so?
Even the area FM station that plays obscure songs has not yet played this tune.
Yet, back in the day, the area college FM stations were playing this tune.
Interesting.
"Dummkopf Trumpf: We need Greenland for national protection. They have a very small population ... They say that Denmark was there 300 years ago with a boat. Well, we were there with boats too I'm sure." x.com
