The Kickstand Song
Up until now my ideas have been latent The cycling world will never be the same But come first light I'll be taking out a patent And from that day If a bike be found lying on the ground again I'm not to blame
What joy it'll bring, piece of metal and a spring Bolted down by the back wheel, activated by the heel What joy it'll bring, piece of metal and a spring
What chicken laid the egg from whence inside an idea hatches? From prototype to production lines to the first one hundred batches I will do for parking bikes what anchors did for sailing What joy it'll bring, piece of metal and a spring
There's handle bars for steering and there's tyre tread for traction A tiny bell for friends you pass and greet But when they add my ingenious contraption Mouths will fall Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And eyebrows will rise and staring eyes will meet The bike complete
What joy it'll bring, piece of metal and a spring Bolted down by the back wheel, activated by the heel What joy it'll bring, piece of metal and a spring
There'll be articles in newspapers and dinners at the town hall My first cheque's for a thousand bucks, now that's one spicy meatball But all the fame and fortune in the world will not compare To the joy it'll bring, piece of metal and a spring Spring
Now bikes around the world can stand alone without their owners And I can get some cash on the side but that's just a bonus When underneath their helmets I will see their smiling faces What joy it'll bring, piece of metal and a spring Piece of metal and a spring
