What the heck are the lyrics to that song? I have never been able to make out most of them...heck I am still not 100% for sure what the song is about other than it appears to be James Dean related.

It came up a few minutes ago on the computer (I have it on random).

Not that it matters I guess...

Great band though...wish I could have seen them live.

It's actually a cover of a Supercharger song. Don't have it handy on this machine, but the original is a lot easier to understand than the Mummies' version.

From memory...

I was walking with a friend of mine
Doing nothing just a passin' time
Got a notion that'll do you good
Eat a pizza down in hollywood
In the alley behind the laundromat
Stab the motherfucker in the back!

Marlon Brando & Jimmy Dean
Stupid clowns didn't mean a thing
I don't really care if he was gay,
was he cuter than Doris Day
With his shoes and his tailored slacks
Stab the motherfucker in the back!

Maybe wrong, but the best i can do.

Yeah, the song is about Sal Mineo, who starred with James Dean in Rebel Without A Cause. He, like the other young actors in that film, met his end in an unexpected and tragic way. He was stabbed to death.
