Lyrics
Frank O'Reilly took a notion
For to cross the silver ocean
And he went by invitation
With an electric touring band
He was the telecaster jester
With his green on red sou-ester
From Glasgow to Liverpool to Manchester
Yeah he layed that rhythm down
Rock 'n roll
He was a soulboy of St Andrew
He was a Tinseltown Commando
Dreamin of valium girls and
The Babylon crew he
Came in search of fun
Well he stuffed his ears with metal
And he walked over rose petals
While the Radio Activity settled yeah
In the California sun
Walkmans
And
Magnums
Walkmans and Magnums oh yeah
Be careful in the sunshine
As he was listening to the sound of his favourite band
And he was snappin' on the fingers of his cool right hand
He met a local businessman
Who made him this offer
Well it's your wealth or your health or your ass boy
Or would you like to smell this little toy
In the dark metal hole he saw Hollywood's soul
Fast forward on a V.C.R.
Walkmans
And
Magnums
Walkmans and Magnums oh yeah
Be careful in the sunshine
Walkmans
And
Magnums
Walkmans and Magnums oh yeah
Be careful in the sunshine
Hoh hoo
Frank O'Reilly took a notion
For to cross the silver ocean
And he went by invitation
With an electric touring band
Frank O'Reilly took a notion
For to cross the silver ocean
And he went by invitation
With an electric touring band
