    Backstage at the local armory, mary, in her little white dress, is wiping the remnants of her performance off the side of her mouth as larry (the guy from the garage who quit the band in order t
    E an honest living) zips up the front of his stinking boiler suit and sings to the same teen-age girls who were stomping and clapping a little while ago, as they kneel with their little pink mou
    Pen near the crew bus, hoping to save the price of admission by performing acts of hooverism on the jolly lads who set up the p.a. system.

    Larry:
    Hey hey hey all you girls in these
    Industrial towns
    I know you're prob'ly gettin' tired
    Of all the local clowns
    They never give you no respect
    They never treat you nice
    So perhaps you oughta try
    A little friendly advice
    And be a crew slut
    Hey, you'll love it
    Be a crew slut
    It's a way of life
    Be a crew slut
    See the world
    Don't make a fuss, just get on the bus
    Crew slut
    Add water makes its own sauce
    Be a crew slut
    So you don't forget, call before midnite tonite
    The boys in the crew
    Are just waiting for you
    You never to get move around
    You never go nowhere
    I know yer prob'ly gettin' tired
    Of all the guys out there
    You always wondered what it's like
    To go from place to place
    So, darlin', take a little ride
    On the mixer's face
    Be a crew slut
    Just follow the magic footprints
    Be a crew slut
    Hey, you'll love it!
    Be a crew slut
    It's a way of life
    I ain't gonna squash it
    And you don't need to wash it!
    Crew slut
    Hey, i'll buy you a pizza
    Crew slut
    Of course i'll introduce you to warren
    The boys in the crew
    Are only waiting for you

    At this point, the road crew, as all road crews must from time to time, borrow some of the big rock group's equipment and have a blues jam session, indicating to the kneeling maidens that they a
    Dowed with a great deal of raw talent, as well as massive meat. obviously impressed with larry's ability to suck so hard on his harmonica that screeching little noises come out of it, mary kneel
    In and reaches upward in gestures of supplication, listening intently as larry continues to sing...

    Larry:
    Well you been to alabama, girl,
    'n' georgia too
    'n' all the boys in the crew
    Is bein' good to you
    I know yer sayin' to yourself
    'this is the way to go'
    'cause when you need a little extra
    They will give you some mo'
    `cause you're the crew slut

    Mary:
    Eh, hah ha, i'm into leather...

    Larry:
    That's good! a lot of the boys in the crew love leather...

    Mary:
    And rubber...

    Larry:
    Yeh, they like rubber too...shrink-tubing
    With a hair dryer...

    Road crew chorus:
    Trade your spot on the bench
    For a guy with a wrench
    And be a...

    Mary:
    Ha ha ha...

    Larry:
    You like that, huh?
    I told you you'd love it...
    It's a way of life!

    Road crew chorus:
    The guys in the crew
    Have got a present for you!
    Ren nah naaah
    Ren nah naaah
    Ren nah naaah

    Mary:
    A present for me?

    Road crew chorus:
    Ren nah naaah
    Ren nah naaah
    Ren nah naaah

    Larry:
    Hmmm, we got a present for you!

    Road crew chorus:
    Ren nah naaah
    Ren nah naaah
    Ren nah naaah

    Mary:

    Road crew chorus:
    Ren nah naaah

    Mary:

    Road crew chorus:
    Ren nah naaah
    Ren nah naaah

    Larry:
    It looks just like a telefunken u-47
    You'll love it...

    Mary:
    With leather?

    Central scrutinizer:
    Eh errr, eh eh...this is,eh, the central scrutinizer again...
    And so mary was enticed away from joe
    By an evil barbarian with a wrench in his pocket
    Lured into a life of sleazery
    With the entire road crew of some
    Famous rock group
    (i don't know whether it was really toad-o or not
    ...i don't know... i'll check it out)
    Again we see
    Music
    Causing
    Big trouble!
