    Read the book that inspired the song. It’s hilarious.

    Which book is that? Also, I'd ALMOST consider Mott's song, "I Wish I Was Your Mother" epic, as well.

    I'd rank Mott the Hoople's album, Mott, in my top 20 rock albums, all-time. There's not a bad track on it. I also like their album, Brain Capers, quite a bit, for its weirdness. And perhaps for one of THE strangest songs titles ever, "Death May Be Your Santa Claus".

    Ian Hunter came up with the name for the band (and inspiration for the song) after reading the novel Mott the Hoople.

    Since I’m a Buckeye I like Ian Hunters solo Album “You’re never alone with a Schizophrenic”.

    Did you hear that the Cleveland Indians are thinking of changing their name to the Cleveland Rocks?

    Thanks. I thought that was what you were referring to. I've never read the book, but because of Ian and the boys, I MAY check it out.

    Wow, possibly changing the name to "Rocks". That truly does ROCK!

    Loved this song since I was around 8-10
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."
