Rock n’ Roll Love Poem!

Just like Chuck Berry
We can Rock n’ Roll
Like Tamla Mowtown
We can dance with soul
Like UB40
I’d love you on the dole
And while I draw the line
At Spandau Ballet’s Gold
I want you

We could sing and dance
From pole to pole
Like Neil Young
You’ve got a heart of gold
I’m a fan of your coconuts
Like Kid Creole
Yeah I’ve got to have you

Like a rock ballad
Without any power
The Weather Girls
Without a shower
And Blackpool prom
Without its tower
I need you

I could have you arrested
For my heart that you stole
But like a football team
That can’t score goals
And Wigan Casino
Without Northern Soul
I’m nothing without you

You're the Top of my Pops
Of that you can be sure
Never mind a date
We could go on tour
Take some pictures of you
Just like The Cure
Make love in Vienna
But not with Midge Ure
Yeah I wanna be with you

You’ve got my number
You know the score
You could be knocking
At heaven’s door
You light my fire
Just like the Doors
And like the Buzzcocks
I’ll love you more
Cos I love you!

The Cure, Midge Ure and Wigan Casino without Northern Soul. Really enjoyed this and some great inferences to excellent music. Love it.
