lyrics

it wasn’t the blues or a blown fuse
nor the needle in the red
t’was the silent sound of madness
even the radio went dead
and the newspapers sighed
there’d be no encore the concert promoter said
thru blown out speakers
the rest in pieces
the amp has lost it’s head

big willy johnson went home all alone
with a guitar and a suitcase and a megaphone
and in the back of the econoline van
the amplifier man
made his final stand
at the merry go round

a majestic sight in the arena light
he came out swinging with all his might
and the champ was not that loud
but man he sure was proud
as he took a final bow
at the concertgebouw

it wasn’t the blues or a blown fuse
nor the needle in the red
it was the silent sound of madness
even the radio went dead
and the newspapers cried
there’d be no encore the concert promoter said
thru blown out speakers
the rest in pieces
the amp has lost it’s head

it wasn’t the blues or a blown fuse
nor the needle in the red
it was the silent sound of madness
even the radio went dead
and the newspapers sighed
there’d be no encore the stage announcer said
thru blown out speakers
the rest in pieces
the amp has lost it’s head
