Donald Fagen - H Gang Lyrics

I hear Denise is back on the outside
That she's got a wicked plan
She's callin' in the Gong Sisters again
To form the ultimate five-chord band
For eight months now in that freaking cell
She's been knockin' ideas around
Now she's good and ready to make a big noise
Right here in her own hometown

Here comes the H Gang
Slammin' out of Hinktown
Better get off the stage boys
They'll be lookin' for a showdown

On a moonless night they started off
On a bus called "Happy Day"
To bring their vision to cities and towns
Across the USA
And in every club and hall they played
The crowd knew every word
And even today folks are talking about
The incredible songs they heard

Here comes the H Gang
Somebody turn off the floodlights
Better get off the stage son
Unless you're ready for a kickfight

Whatever happened to the H Gang
Some say they were the best
I heard they broke up
That Denise got hitched
And she's living in the Midwest
But there's a film that's in production
The working title's "Song Of Desire"
About an orphan girl with this crazy red hair
And a voice and a dream and a soul on fire
