The Lyrics
Heard the song "Bad To The Bone" on the radio recently, which starts with one of the funniest opening stanzas in all of rock and roll ..... Head Nurse spoke up; leave this one alone .. She could tell right away, that I was bad to the bone. So I immediately started to riff on the theme and .....
Now the day I was born
The young nurses were aggrieved
And wailed in great sorrow
As I struggled to breathe
The Heard Nurse cried out
"Please help This One fight"
She could tell right away, People
I was All Sweetness and Light
Sweetness and Light
Sweetness and Light
So so so sweet
So so so sweet
Sweetness and Light
I've healed a thousand rifts
Before I met you
I'll heal thousand year ones
Before I am thru
Before my time is over
Even Sunnis will love Shi'ites
Im here to tell you, People
I'm all Sweetness and Light
Sweetness and Light
Sweetness and Light
So so so sweet
So so so sweet
Sweetness and Light
I'll make beggarwoman rich
And a streetwalker pure
I'll make and old widow smile
As her heartbreak is cured
Now when you've reached rock bottom
I'll help you thru your plight
And you wont need to thank me
Cause I'm Sweetness and Light
Sweetness and Light
Sweetness and Light
So so so sweet
Sweetness and light
(Cue thirty second violin interlude played by a chorus of 7 year old child prodigies, followed by a Ukelele riff from Chinese child prodigy Feng E*)
Now when I when I walk the streets
Xenophobes turn xenophiles
Every gay and redneck
Shall be reconciled
By the time my mission's over
Even dogs and cats wont fight
Im here to warm your cockles
Cause Im Sweetness and Light
The young nurses were aggrieved
And wailed in great sorrow
As I struggled to breathe
The Heard Nurse cried out
"Please help This One fight"
She could tell right away, People
I was All Sweetness and Light
Sweetness and Light
Sweetness and Light
So so so sweet
So so so sweet
Sweetness and Light
I've healed a thousand rifts
Before I met you
I'll heal thousand year ones
Before I am thru
Before my time is over
Even Sunnis will love Shi'ites
Im here to tell you, People
I'm all Sweetness and Light
Sweetness and Light
Sweetness and Light
So so so sweet
So so so sweet
Sweetness and Light
I'll make beggarwoman rich
And a streetwalker pure
I'll make and old widow smile
As her heartbreak is cured
Now when you've reached rock bottom
I'll help you thru your plight
And you wont need to thank me
Cause I'm Sweetness and Light
Sweetness and Light
Sweetness and Light
So so so sweet
Sweetness and light
(Cue thirty second violin interlude played by a chorus of 7 year old child prodigies, followed by a Ukelele riff from Chinese child prodigy Feng E*)
Now when I when I walk the streets
Xenophobes turn xenophiles
Every gay and redneck
Shall be reconciled
By the time my mission's over
Even dogs and cats wont fight
Im here to warm your cockles
Cause Im Sweetness and Light
*If you want to see something truly amazing, Google up "Feng E, Blackbird" (or "Feng E, Abbey Road") and watch a 7 year old Taiwanese kid play "Blackbird" on a ukelele across the street from the Abbey Road recording studio
