lyrics

Architect
By The Boffo Yux Dudes

An architect by trade I am
But love is in my master plan
I'm obsessed by geometric forms
But I have no one to keep me warm

I’ll sing to you of I.M.Pei
And, no, that doesn’t make me gay
We’ll build a love of wood and bricks
And I’ll show you my erection kit

Like steel towers scraping sky
Your beauty’s pleasing to my eyes
I’ll build you up and bring you thrills
Torque you with my pneumatic drill

Your eyes are gray slate like a roof
Your tongue’s a brick that chipped my tooth
Your face contains an inner glow
Ornamented just like Art Deco

Your passion brings out inner fire
And pierces me with gothic spire
Your clothes, your hair, your hat, your blouse
Reminds me of Sydney's Opera House

Like steel towers scraping sky
Your beauty’s pleasing to my eyes
I’ll build you up and I'll bring you thrills
And Torque you with my pneumatic drill

You see my passion’s really true
The things I love I see in you
You’re so sturdy - your lines so straight
Hedges neatly trimmed around your gate

I’m knocking here upon your door
Please say you’ll love me forevermore
Just let me enter - sing my song
I’ll lay your foundation all night long

Like steel towers scraping sky
Your beauty’s pleasing to my eyes
I’ll build you up and bring you thrills
And Torque you with my pneumatic drill

Like steel towers scraping sky
Your beauty’s pleasing to my eyes
I’ll build you up and bring you thrills
And Torque you with my pneumatic drill

Boffo Yux Dudes Boston

Old guys who should know better. The ones your parents warned you about. Allan Morgan and Tom Giarrosso head this version of BYD with Scott Mercer and Partick Montello, using rabid optimism that they'll be remembered for more than just all those Elvis Traffic interactives with DJ's around the USA. ... more
