There's nothing on T.V. but a thing
|
Called Scarecrow and Mrs. King.
|
You sit and watch it while your wife
|
Becomes the play thing of another man's life:
|
It don't bother me, I'm a toady -
|
I'm John Bonham's coke roadie.
|
|
Your life is totally out of step,
|
But so what? - I'm with the Zep;
|
I don't wash dishes or pay the rent -
|
I just depend on John getting bent:
|
It don't bother me, I'm a toady -
|
I'm John Bonham's coke roadie.
|
|
It's amazing what goes through your brain
|
As I frantically sweep the little grains:
|
Think of fidelity! Think of the fools!
|
Marriage destroys you - stick to drum stools.
|
It don't bother me, I'm a toady -
|
I'm John Bonham's coke roadie.
|
|
We tour through cities; I see life -
|
And someone is next to your wife;
|
The only thing that can't be canned
|
Is scrambling under the high hat stand:
|
It don't bother me, I'm a toady -
|
I'm John Bonham's coke roadie.
