'I was dancing when I was twelve I was dancing when I was twelve'

This post is really for Divinyl.
Her site is such a mine of musical memories for me.
Things I had put away and forgotten. Things that are reminders of my place in space and time.

This T.Rex music book has been in my life for over 30 years. I have played around with some of the more familiar ones, busked my way through them, allowed the lyrics to form patterns and images in my mind.
Largely though, I haven't a clue what Marc was singing about on most of them.

The Scenescof Dynasty (Extract)

Meeting behind the iron sling
My brandy-tongue was like a Caterpillar thing
Suzy hung up on Joan of Arc
Cloudily gave me the key to the dark
Scraping the lice from my bed
I sussed we were teleported into his head.

Answers on a postcard to....LOL
