Lowell George
Some contend that rock and roll
Is bad for the the body and bad for the soul
Bad for the heart, bad for the mind,
Bad for the deaf, and bad for the blind
Makes some men crazy and then they act like fools
Makes some men crazy, and then they start to drool
Unscrupulous operators could confuse
Exploit and deceive the reflex theories and change the probabilities
It's a crass and rockous crackas place
With pavlov on the the human race
It's a terrible illness, it's a terrible case
And it's usually permanent when it takes place
It's a teenage nervouse breakdown
Nervous teenage breakdown
Some contend that rock and roll
Is bad for the the body and bad for the soul
Bad for the heart, bad for the mind,
Bad for the deaf, and bad for the blind
Makes some men crazy and then they act like fools
Makes some men crazy, and then they start to drool

Little Feat è un gruppo rock statunitense formatosi a Los Angeles nel 1969 da Lowell George (cantautore, cantante e chitarrista) e Bill Payne (tastierista). La band ha saputo mescolare influenze blues, R and B, country, funk e rock and roll in un sound originale e riconoscibile. Tra i brani più famosi si ricordano "Dixie Chicken", "Willin'" e "Fat Man in the Bathtub". Dopo lo scioglimento del gruppo nel 1979, a seguito della morte di George, Little Feat è tornato a esibirsi nove anni dopo, continuando ad incidere nuovi album fino ad oggi. Tra gli album più importanti si annovera "Waiting for Columbus" (1978), considerato un classico del rock americano.
