He's the man without a plan
To shake it up and set you down again
A Bo Diddely walk no more messing round the block
17 watts is all of what he's got


CHORUS

G E
Take me out and mess me 'round
G E
Don't want style without a sound.
D G
It ain't clean but dig the scene
B A
And I heard the message now the message is mine.

VERSE

I heard the man he brought the news
He came in loud and out of tune
Now asleep like a bus conductor dribble like a dog.
Double timing scratch to the sound I'm thinking of

CHORUS
G E
Take me out and mess me 'round
G E
Don't want style without a sound.
D G
It ain't clean but dig the scene
B A
And I heard the message now the message is mine.
B A
I heard the message, come on Timmy!
