Something is happening – Mr. Jones
My brother says you’re better than the Beatles ‘n’ the Stones
Saturday nite ‘n’ Sunday morning
You turned us into ‘Heroes’ – can you hear the heroes sing?
Dandy – you’re the prettiest star
There ain’t no life on Mars
But we always thought there might be
Dandy – you opened up the door
You left us wanting more
And then we took the last bus home
Who let the Genie – outta the lamp?
And Little Lord Fauntleroy – who let him outta his amp?
Saturday nite ‘n’ Sunday morning
Trevor’s getting’ bolder – ‘n’ Woody loves to hit things
Dandy – the world was black ‘n’ white
You showed us what it’s like
To live inside a rainbow
Dandy – you thrilled us to the core
You left us wanting more
And then we took the last bus home
You beat up Goliath – you had it all
The voice, the look, the songs that shook
The gift of the gab ‘n’ the gall
Saturday nite ‘n’ Sunday morning
All we had to look forward to was the weekend
You made our lives worth living
Dandy - you’re still the prettiest star
There ain’t no life on Mars
But we always thought there might be
Dandy – You took us to the fair
Cabaret Voltaire – and then we caught the last bus home
Dandy – we’ve waited long enough
They should put a statue up
In Piccadilly Circus
Dandy – you blew us all away
Outta the drab ‘n’ the grey
And then we caught the last bus home
Dandy – the keeper of the flame
We won’t see your like again
No, Dandy was a one-off
Dandy – look what you’ve become
I guess I owe you one
So thanks for the memories

Something is happening Mr. Jones
My brother says you're better than The Beatles or The Stones
Saturday night and Sunday morning
You turned us into heroes
Can you hear the heroes sing?
Dandy - you're the prettiest star
There ain't no life on Mars
Well we always thought there might be
Dandy - you opened up the door
You left us wanting more and then we took the last bus home - (yeah)
Who let the Genie out of the lamp?
And Little Lord Fauntleroy who let him out of his amp?
Saturday night and Sunday morning
Well Trevor's getting Bolder
And Woody wants to hit things
Dandy - this world was black and white
You showed us what it's like to live inside a rainbow
Dandy - you thrilled us to the core
Who left us wanting more and then we took the last bus home
You beat up a liar
You had it all
The voice, the look, the songs that shook
The gift of the gab and the gob
Saturday night, Sunday morning
When all we had to look forward to was the weekend
You made our lives worth living
Dandy - you're still the prettiest star
There ain't no life on Mars
But we always thought there might be - (yeah)
Dandy - you took us to the bar
We're Cabaret Voltaire
And then we caught the last bus home
Dandy - you know we waited long enough
They should put a statue up in Piccadilly Circus
Dandy - you blew us all away
Out of the drab and the grey
And then we caught the last bus home
Dandy - the keeper of the flame
We won't see your like again

I guess I owe you one so thanks for the memories
