Written and recorded in 1973 in Elstree London, Benny the Bouncer by ELP (Emerson, Lake and Palmer)
Also loved the Hymn Jerusalem on same album.



Lyrics, as they are never right using voice recognition......

Benny was the bouncer at the Palais de Dance
He'd slash your granny's face up given half a chance.
He'd sell you back the pieces, all for less than half a quid
He thought he was the meanest
Until he met with Savage Sid.

Now Sidney was a greaser with some nasty roots (UK version of Hell's Angels)
He poured a pint of Guinness over Benny's boots
Benny looked at Sidney:
Sidney stared right back in his eye.
Sidney chose a switchblade
And Benny got a cold meat pie.
Oh! what a terrible sight,
Much to the people's delight.
One hell of a fight.

Sidney grabbed a hatchet, buried it... in Benny's head.
The people gasped as he bled:
The end of a Ted? (Teddy Boys - pre-curser to skin heads in UK)

Well, they dragged him from the wreckage of the Palais in bits.
They tried to stick together all the bits that would fit.
But some of him was missing
And part of him arrived too late,
So now he works for Jesus
As the bouncer at St. Peter's Gate.

I looked through a bunch and didn't see this one. The best line is close to get beginning- "...he was trying to keep his courage up, by applying booze." LOL The Amazing Rhythm Aces- "Third Rate Romance, Low Rent Rondevu"

ok, maybe the line is "... I'll even tell you I love you, if you want me to." LOL

This song may have been posted in earlier threads but not on this one where it actually belongs. A forum search finds the title but not the actual song.

I'm glad someone posted Dead Skunk, always a favorite.
