The Lucas Song

(Sung to the tune of: The Battle Hymn of the Republic)

Let me tell you all the story
of a patron of the Arts;

His name was Joseph Lucas
and he made electric parts;

He put them into Morrises,
MGs and Golfing carts;

But his parts don't work no more.

<Chorus>
Glory, Glory, Prince of Darkness
Glory, Glory, Prince of Darkness
Glory, Glory, Prince of Darkness
His parts don't work no more

For those of you who think we're
speaking sacreligiously;

Remember that that we're victims
of the Lucas Company;

The title "Prince of Darkness"
come from spotty quality;

'Cause his parts don't work no more.

<Chorus>

Now, Joseph was an expert
in the voltage and the amps;

His first job in the business
was extinguishing street lamps;

They called him "Prince of Darkness"
back when he wore knee pants;

And his parts don't work no more.

<Chorus>

Master Lucas was intent upon
expanding his career;

He would build refirgerators
for his country dear;

Now that's the very reason
why the English drink warm beer;

'Cause his parts don't work no more

<Chorus>

When Joseph lay a-dying
very near the end of life;

His family gathered 'round him
and were seeking his advice;

The only words the man could say
were "Don't drive at night"

'Cause his parts don't work no more

<Chorus>

So as you go a-driving
in your early MGA;

Remember that the Ghost of Lucas
rides with you each day;

You'd better have a flashlight
and a battery or two;

'Cause his parts don't work no more.

<Chorus>
