The Ballad of Mr. Volt

Gather 'round lads let me tell you a tale Of a legend in the thirsty 44er trail Michel Schenker or Mr Volt by name When it comes to sparks he's ahead of the game He builds the wagon all the wires aligned Day and night no rest for his kind The lights the sound the magic in the air It's all his work and we've none to compare! Ohhh Mr Volt our electric knight He keeps the wagon glowing bright! Ohhh Michel Schenker the ladies swoon And the BSK runs when he enters the room! Now Michel's got fists he's a kickboxer king But his glare alone can do the thing The BSK boys they tremble in fear When he's near they all disappear But violence? Nah that's below his pride One look one smirk and they run to hide He's a lover not a fighter it's clear to see Romantic as hell that's Michel's decree Ohhh Mr Volt our electric knight He keeps the wagon glowing bright! Ohhh Michel Schenker the ladies swoon And the BSK runs when he enters the room! Remember the year he joined our crew We filled his glass and the stories grew A lady oh boy with a mighty weight He said "Even she needs a proper date!" We laughed for years and he'd just grin Said "Experience counts – you've gotta jump in!" Big or small short or tall Michel lays 'em flat he's had 'em all! Ohhh Mr Volt our electric knight He keeps the wagon glowing bright! Ohhh Michel Schenker the ladies swoon And the BSK runs when he enters the room! So here's to Michel our hero our spark Building our dreams till way past dark With wires and charm he's our shining star The thirsty 44er's Michel the best by far! Raise your glass for Mr Volt A kickboxer a lover and a man of bolts!
