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.

Liquid Gang Lyrics

T. Rex

he's gonna be glad
when you take the hand
of the liquid gang, oh yeah.....

peter, really, peter
he's such a messy eater
he's got frogs in his eyes
from telling those lies
so Sunday's almost Monday
you got to understand
its gonna be grand
when you take the hand
of the liquid gang, oh yeah.....

shelly silver belly
she's got me on the telly
damn little god
with the rockabilly, ya
those kids are young
but that's how it begun

you got to understand
when you take the hand
of the liquid gang, oh yeah.....

your gonna be, gonna be grand (2X)
your gonna be, gonna be glad (2X)

alligator heat with the dancing feat
rides a jewelled jump bike
he does what he likes
but he has a light
but your out of sight

you got to understand
when you take the hand
of the liquid gang, oh yeah.....

your gonna be, gonna be glad (2X)
(long horns part and guitar solo)
