Colder Than The Coldest Winter Was Cold Lyrics - Odditorium Or Warlords Of Mars - Dandy Warhols

By the end of the Great War the Dandy Warhols had progressed 

Far beyond the traditional jug band sound, Zia had all but hung up 

The washtub bass in favor of her new invention 

Which she called the 'Synthesizer' 

The Banjo was still there but now it was electrified 

Through a flat microphone which Pete had wound tightly 

With copper wire and called his 'Pickup' 

And in turn, made it louder by what Fat Head jokingly called 'Petes Amp' 

Well, the name stuck and by the time such luminaries 

As Gene Vincent, Elvis Presley and B. B. King 

Had heard this new Warhols sound 

They were calling it 'Rock and Roll' 

Dandy front man Courtney Taylor-Taylor 

Would be quoted as saying 

I know its only 'Rock and Roll', but I think I like it 

Im Bill Curtis and youre listening to a piece of history
