Lyrics by Gerry Cinnamon:
Sing my songs
Never thought I’d make it this far
Weren’t so long ago
That I used to sell 9 bars

Lived my life
I can prove cos I got scars
Chant my name
While I’m strumming on a my geetar
-
She said she had a thing for James Dean
And the music from the 50s
When we used to keep the streets clean

Faded memories of a young team
Like the echo of an old dream
I carved her name into a sun beam
Cos she’s my Sun Queen
-
Fakes in bands
Only wanna get wasted
They wear nice clothes
But they’ll never even taste it

Ripped off songs
First you copy then you paste it
The boys got soul
But he musta misplaced it
-
She said she had a thing for James Dean
And the music from the 50s
When we used to keep the streets clean

Faded memories of a young team
Like the echo of an old dream
I carved her name into a sun beam
Cos she’s my Sun Queen
-
She said she had a thing for James Dean
And the music from the 50s
When we used to keep the streets clean

Faded memories of a young team
Like the echo of an old dream
I carved her name into a sun beam
Cos she’s my Sun Queen

Als ich den Song das erste Mal gehört habe. War ich total begeistert, natürlich hab ich mir sofort das Album bestellt. Könnte ich immer in Dauerschleife hören.

After having the pleasure of being a teen In the 90s, taking for granted the fact that guitar music would come to an end for years to come . This lad has brought it back from the grave in fine style with a quality on par with the finest bands of the 90s . Thank you Gezza, you are the definition of the true working class hero 👏

Sing my songs, never thought I'd make it this far
Weren't so long ago that I used to sell nine bars
I live my life, I can prove it 'cause I got scars
Chant my name while I'm strummin' on my guitar
She said she had a thing for James Dean
And the music from the fifties
When they used to keep the streets clean
Faded memories of a young teen
Like the echo of an old dream
I carved her name into a sunbeam
'Cause she's my sun queen
Fakes in bands only wanna get wasted
They wear nice clothes but they'll never even taste it
Ripped off songs, first you copy, then you paste it
The boy's got soul but he must of misplaced it
She said she had a thing for James Dean
And the music from the fifties
When they used to keep the streets clean
Faded memories of a young teen
Like the echo of an old dream
I carved her name into a sunbeam
'Cause she's my sun queen
She said she had a thing for James Dean
And the music from the fifties
When they used to keep the streets clean
Faded memories of a young teen
Like the echo of an old dream
I carved her name into a sunbeam
'Cause she's my sun queen
