Ray Stevens / The Streak

Ray Stevens의 Novelty Song 3탄은 The Streak'라는 별명의 스트리커 이야기입니다.
슈퍼마켓에, 주유소에 그리고 농구경기 하프타임에 나타나 뭇 여성의 마음을 흔들어 놓고 사라진

The Streak의 이야기로 증인의 부인 Ethel의 마음을 사로잡아 결국 Ethel도 옷을 벗어 팽개치고
그를 뒤쫒아간다는 희극적인 이야기 입니다. 

 

여보, 눈감어!(Don't look, Ethel!)하고 소리쳐보지만 이미 뿅간 마누라! ㅎㅎ
Ray Stevens이 74년 발표하여 빌보드 챠트 1위에 올렸던 곡입니다.

The Streak

(Reporter):
Hello, everyone, this is your action news reporter with all the news
that is news across the nation, on the scene at the supermarket.

There seems to have been some disturbance here.
Pardon me, sir, did you see what happened?

(Witness):
Yeah, I did. I's standin' overe there by the tomaters, and here he
come, running through the pole beans, through the fruits and vegetables, nekkid as a jay bird.
And I hollered over t' Ethel, I said, "Don't look, Ethel!"
But it's too late, she'd already been incensed.

(Chorus)
Here he comes, look at that, look at that
There he goes, look at that, look at that
And he ain't wearin' no clothes

Oh, yes, they call him the Streak Look at that, look at that
Fastest thing on two feet Look at that, look at that
He's just as proud as he can be Of his anatomy
He goin' give us a peek

Oh, yes, they call him the Streak Look at that, look at that
He likes to show off his physique Look at that, look at that
If there's an audience to be found
He'll be streakin' around Invitin' public critique

(Reporter):
This is your action news reporter once again,
and we're here at the gas station.
Pardon me, sir, did you see what happened?

(Witness):
Yeah, I did. I's just in here gettin my car checked, he just appeared
out of the traffic. Come streakin' around the grease rack there, didn't
have nothin' on but a smile.
I looked in there, and Ethel was gettin' her a cold drink.
I hollered, "Don't look, Ethel!" But it was too late.
She'd already been mooned.
Flashed her right there in front of the shock absorbers.

(Chorus)
He ain't crude, look at that, look at that
He ain't lewd, look at that, look at that
He's just in the mood to run in the nude

Oh, yes, they call him the Streak Look at that, look at that
He likes to turn the other cheek Look at that, look at that
He's always makin' the news Wearin' just his tennis shoes
Guess you could call him unique

(Reporter):
once again, your action news reporter in the booth at the gym,

covering the disturbance at the basketball playoff. 
Pardon me, sir, did you see what happened?

(Witness):
Yeah, I did.  Half time, I's just goin' down thar to get Ethel a snow
cone.  And here he come, right out of the cheap seats, dribbling, right down the middle of the court. 
Didn't have on nothing but his PF's.
Made a hook shot and got out through the concessions stand. 
I hollered up at Ethel, I said, "Don't look, Ethel!" 
But it was too late.  She'd already got a free shot. 
Grandstandin', right there in front of the home team.

(Chorus)
