Sometimes you dream,
sometimes it seems
There's nothing there at all
You just seem older than yesterday
And you're waiting for tomorrow to come
You draw to the curtains,
want things for certain
You're cozy in your little room
The carpet's all paid for, God bless the TV
Let's go shoot a hole in the moon Oh,
and Roy Rogers is writing tonight
Returning to our silver screen
Comic book characters never grow old
Evergreen heroes whose stories we're
told Are the great sequined cowboy
Who sings of the blames Of roundups and wrestlers and home on the
range
Turn on the TV,
oh, shut out the light
Roy Rogers is writing tonight
Nine o'clock mornings and five o'clock
evenings I'd laugh in their face if I could
Oh,
I'd rather have ham and my sandwich and cheese
But complaining wouldn't do any good
Laid back in my armchair,
I close eyes and think clear I can hear who's beats ahead
Roy and Trigger have adjusted the hilltop
While the wife and the kids are in bed
Oh,
and Roy Rogers is writing tonight
Returning to our silver screen
Comic book
characters never grow old Evergreen heroes whose stories we're told
Are the great sequined cowboy Who sings of the blames
Of roundups and wrestlers and home on the range
Turn on the TV,
oh,
shut out the light Roy Rogers is writing tonight
Alright,
this next song is about a comic book character called Dan Dare,
he used to
be on the Front of the Eagle.
And this is from the Rock of the Westies album.
