OMC?

Klassieke auto’s en muziek. Daar moeten vast hele boekwerken/sites aan gewijd zijn. Het in 1995 door de Nieuw Zeelandse groep OMC uitgebrachte “How Bizarre’ is zo’n song.

Brother Pele’s in the back, sweet Seena’s in the front
Cruising down the freeway in the hot, hot sun
Suddenly red-blue lights flash us from behind
Loud voice, “All move, please step out onto the line”

Pele breathes words of comfort
Seena just hides her eyes
Policeman taps his shades
“Is that a Chevy 69?”

How bizarre
How bizarre, how bizarre

Destination unknown, as we pull in for some gas
A freshly pasted poster reveals a smile from the pack
Elephants and acrobats, lions, next monkey
Pele speaks righteous, sister Seena says “Funky”

How bizarre
How bizarre, how bizarre

Ooh baby
(Ooh baby)
It’s making me crazy
(It’s making me crazy)

Every time I look around
(Look around)
Every time I look around
(Every time I look around)
Every time I look around, it’s in my face

Ringmaster steps up, says, “The elephants left town”
People jump and jive and the clowns then stuck around
T.V. news and cameras, there’s choppers in the sky
Marines, police, reporters, ask where, for, and why

Pele yells, “We’re outta here,” Seena says, “Right on”
Make your moves and starting grooves before they knew we were gone
Jumped into the Chevy, headed for big lights
Wanna know the rest? Hey, buy the rights

How bizarre
How bizarre, how bizarre

Ooh baby
(Ooh baby)
It’s making me crazy
(It’s making me crazy)

Every time I look around
(Look around)
Every time I look around
(Every time I look around)
Every time I look around, it’s in my face
It’s in my face

Ooh baby
(Ooh baby)
It’s making me crazy
(It’s making me crazy)

Every time I look around
(Look around)
Every time I look around
(Every time I look around)
Every time I look around, it’s in my face

Ooh baby
(Ooh baby)
It’s making me crazy
(It’s making me crazy)

Every time I look around
(Look around)
Every time I look around
(Look around)
Every time I look around, it’s in my life

Dat is tot zover. Maar de wat neuzelende zang en het refrein blijven een dag lang tussen de oren dreinen

How bizarre…
