Stick out your can, ‘cause I’m the garbageman…
Lux Interior (1946 - 2009). One of the all-time great frontmen, and master of double entendre.
I’m the night headhunter looking for some head
With a way out body underneath that head
Well I’ll get you baby with a little luck
‘Cuz I’m teenage tiger and a goo goo muck
You better duck,
When I show up…
The goo goo muck
