but he'd nearly forgotten
(he'd nearly forgotten)
it was velveteen
(velveteen)
his best velveteen
on the rock n roll scene
and when I arrived
(and when I arrived)
in my own limosene
(own limosene)
he was just wearin'
(he was just wearin')
his favorite yellow tweed
(favorite yellow tweed)
he gave me a smile

(I didn't take note)
till his most romantic show

(candles and cloves)
and a hand-beaded necklace
around his throat!
his hair was a mess
(his hair was a mess)
but he was dressed in his best
(dressed in his best)
jade and lavender
yeah jade and lavender

I thought he was crass
(I thought he was crass)
sittin' on his own ass
(sittin' on his own ass)
so I left in a hurry
(I left in a hurry)
but he said
baby don't worry
(baby don't worry)
I'm still the same ole boy

from seventeen
(seventeen)
wearin' baggy ripped jeans
(baggy ripped jeans)
from good ole Aberdeen
(Aberdeen)
so he got down
(he got down)
