17. Cosmic Wheels
(Donovan)

Two Donovan covers in the row. Cosmic Wheels suits the tango form very well, don't you think? --Jore

Jore's Donovan cover versions are always Monty Pythonesque - and completely different. Sounds like a 1920s crooner singing here. Hey Gyp - Dig The Vibrato! Brilliant! --Davy

God is playing marbles
With his planets and his stars
Creating havoc through my life
With his influence on Mars

That's why I'm stumbling down the highway
On my boots of steel
I should be rolling down the skyway
On my cosmic wheels
Cosmic wheels

In the present position of the planets
It's impossible for me to say
Just when I'll find my course again
With these boulders in my way

I should be rolling down the skyway
On my cosmic wheels
Instead of stumbling down this highway
On my boots of steel
Cosmic wheels
