Do The Strand

There's a new sensation
A fabulous creation
A danceable solution
To teenage revolution
Do The Strand 

We've had very little Roxy Music at THC.  Let's remedy that deficiency.  This is Do The Strand from the band's second album, For Your Pleasure, released in 1973.  With delightfully lunatic lyrics.

Arabs at oasisEskimos and Chinese
If you feel blueLook through who's whoSee like guruAnd NijinskyDo the strandsky!
 
Weary of the waltzAnd mashed potato schmaltz
RhododendronIs a nice flowerEvergreenIt lasts foreverBut it can't beat strand power
 
The Sphinx and Mona LisaLolita and GuernicaDid the strand
