Sparks

Sparks is an American rock and pop band formed in Los Angeles in 1971 by brothers Ron (keyboards) and Russell Mael (vocals), renamed from Halfnelson. Best known for their quirky approach to songwriting, Sparks' music is often accompanied by intelligent, sophisticated, and acerbic lyrics, and an idiosyncratic, theatrical stage presence, typified in the contrast between Russell's wide-eyed hyperactive frontman antics and Ron's sedentary scowling. They are also noted for Russell Mael's falsetto voice and Ron Mael's keyboard style. more »

When I spot a driver worth a second glance,
Foot to floorboard, impact soon achieved.
Here comes Bob!
I ain't subtle in my ways of making friends,
Girl, this rubbled mess was caused by my neglect.
Of course, I'll pay and by the way, my dear,
Here comes Bob!
I ain't subtle in my ways of making friends.
Sometimes I'll stoop to hitting 
Two-door coupes without the frills,
But that's just for casual acquaintances,
For stripped-down thrills.
Your car, girl; or mine?
It doesn't matter, doesn't matter, no,
But for affairs with staying power
I go after limousines.
It's always nice if something big
Is acting as your go-between.
And for group encounters I'll hit buses,
Mobile homes, or trains to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
It's hard to make acquaintances in our big town;
Most eyes stare at nothing much at all.
But here comes Bob!
I ain't subtle in my ways of making friends,
Friends, acquaintances!
Instant adulation comes to some at birth,
Born to queens or corporate entities.
But here comes Bob!
Someday they'll put me away;
I'll think back on active days.
Most were worth the minor scars,
Some were worth the damaged cars,
And the judge will say to me:
"Bob, you've got a bad means to a worthwhile end."
Well, here comes Bob!
