Iron Maiden - Sheriff Of Huddersfield Lyrics
(Iron Maiden)(Note: the Japanese Stranger In A Strange Land EP has a lyric sheet whichcontains hilarious errors in the Rodney's rap part. Highly recommended,although for entertainment purposes only.)Life in a city living in L.A.Is a long way from Huddersfield townThe back of the Rainbow's a long way from heavenBut that's where he get's his pork pieLimos and ladies they're driving him queasyRugby and cricket's unknownBaseball and football they're making him lazyYour fan club says "Rodney come home"(chorus)The Sheriff of Huddersfield locked in his castleLook down on Hollywood HillsThe Sheriff of Huddersfield locked in his castleYou're our own Hot Rod on wheelsA good game of arrows a few dozen barrelsThe Nautilus rusts in the yardBut for Yorkshire he's yearning but because he's earningHe'll always live in L.A.A custom made wallet that stays in his pocketAnd never comes out to pay billsHe's winning at poker and playing the JokerAnd he always cheats when he deals(repeat chorus)(Rodney's rap)Hello, let me introduce meself!My name is Rodney. I'm immensely strong.When I were a lad, I could lift up fivenavies on an end of a shovel.The reason I never took martial arts becauseI was immensely fearsome andI'd probably kill everybodyI came into contact with it.I was phenomenally strong.Pride and ego, my lads, pride and ego,is what makes the world rotate.And everybody knows the centre of the universe is Huddersfieldbut I don't live there anymore.I live in Los Angeles.It's great!... I thinkRufus the red has a crane by his bedTo wrench himself up in the morn'But if you dare to tread at the foot of his bedYou'll wish you'd never been born.A bear with a sore head we mean your foreheadHe slumbers for most of the dayWide eyed and legless baked beans for breakfastYour problem Rodney L.A.(repeat chorus)
