Initially a British folk-rockcombo called Tyrannosaurus Rex, T. Rex was a primary force in glam rock, thanks to the creative direction of guitarist/vocalist Marc Bolan(born Mark Feld). Bolan created a deliberately trashy form of rock and rollthat was proud of its own disposability. T. Rex's music borrowed the underlying sexuality of early rock & roll, adding dirty, simple grooves and fat distorted guitars, as well as an overarching folky/hippie spirituality that always came through the clearest on ballads.

Hang Ups Lyrics

T. Rex

Marc Bolan - guitar, vocal, maraccas and tambourine
Dino Dines - keyboards
Herbie Flowers- bass
Tony Newman- drums
Play in a loud cloud
When I'm down you bring me up, babe
When I'm up you bring me down
When I'm down you bring me up, babe
When I'm up you bring me down
I'm such a contradiction- I'm just hung-up *
Get off my back and leave me
Oh shit, let's get it on
Get off my back and leave me
Oh shit, let's get it on
I'm such a contradiction- I'm just hung-up
I'm such a contradiction- I'm just hung-up
Everything is sweet babe
Then everything is the pits
Everything is sweet babe
Then everything is the pits
You love me then you leave me
How come you always pick the hits?
* Repeat
