Lyrics
It´s a pedal-powered radio station It´ll fire up your imagination It´s a sound system, it´ll make you dance Might make you jump right outta your pants Traveling roadshow microphone With a bicycle seat as the throne If you see it you´ll agree It´s right there on your frequency It´s the Rinky Dink, the Rinky Dink When you´re feeling on the brink It´ll make you laugh, it´ll make you think Talking about that Rinky Dink The soap´s a-bubbling, breeze is blowing Ain´t no telling where it´s going The windmill´s swinging with the tribe It´s that day-glo, solar vibe Stop a riot, it´s been done It´ll part the clouds and bring the sun It don´t matter where you´ve been Just sit on down and tune right in It´s the Rinky Dink, the Rinky Dink Just might be the missing link It´ll make you nod, it´ll make you wink Talking about that Rinky Dink They´ll come rolling through your town You might go up and never come down It´s the cure for air pollution It´s the Rinky Dink solution Folks´ll wonder, folks´ll stare Kids´ll jump into their chair Before they go you know the rub Put a quid into the tub It´s the Rinky Dink, the Rinky Dink It´ll ease up any kink It´ll make your troubles shrink Talking about that Rinky Dink The Rinky Dink, the Rinky Dink Give those folks something to drink Turn the pedals, clackity-clink Talking about that Rinky Dink Other optional (and stranger) chorus lines: ..It´s got it all but the kitchen sink Ain´t no liar, ain´t no fink... ..Purple, red, yellow, pink Steel, wood, rubber, zinc... ---- Created July, 2001 Copyright David Rovics 2001, all rights reserved
