The Best Place in Town is Also the Darkest
By The Boffo Yux Dudes

pass the peas
pass the bread
pass me some mayo
pass me some cheese
pass me something . make me gonna sneeze...

Gonna take you to a place
Take you downtown
It's a little tiny place
Where we can fool around

It's cool and dark
But the band is hot
It's the best in town
Gonna hit the spot

We gonna hit that spot baby
uh-huh, uh-huh

Slide it baby....
Now slide in now move a little closer
C'mon baby, get over here
You love it when you're near

Let's get a little funky now
Funky in the dark
Don't say no
Don't say no
Don't say a thing in the dark…

Hit me one time!!
(horn blast)

I love the night
And I love the dark
Won't take you to no museum
Won't take you to no park

The best part of town
Don't got no lights
If you wanna get funky
Don't need to see no sights

Baby, I read you like a book
Printed in Braille
I'm gonna do everything
Prolog
Epilogue
Dialogue
I'll read the sequel
I'll read all Seven volumes
I'll read you in braille until you kill Voldemort


Slide it baby....
Move a little closer
Move a little closer, now

I like it when you're here
When you're oh so near
When you're near, gonna whisper in your ear
Somethin' flatterin' about your rear
Cause I love it when you're here

Hit me two times!!
(Two horn blasts)

Hit me again!!
Dealer voice: That's 22! House wins.
Yee-aiii!!!

Busted. Hah!

The best part of town
is where you are, baby.
I mean you, plus dark, that is the best part of town
and we can get down

The best part of town
Is the darkest part of town
We get down.
I ain't no clown...

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
