Peter This Is Pip

Peter This Is Pip

Back in the day
Both unattached
She now with Yuri
Me with Astrid
Pip and I were pals
Nine years between us
Which was huge
In the beginning
Leveled off with time
I covered rock
Often came along
One for the money
Two for the show
Feeling groovy
Time on our side
The little squirt
Five-years-old
Screamed at TV
Jumping up and down
Right out of her head
Beatles on Ed Sullivan
Pip went nuts
Ringo shook his hair
Screeched like a Banshee
Freaked Mom and Dad
Fell in love with Paul
Though John was cool
But married to Cynthia
Then my pal Yoko
Later her passion
Shifted to Peter and Mick
Wolf the Ooofergoofer
Neighbor and friend
Murder Building
University Road
When not on tour
Often bopped into
Cardell’s for a bite
Where hipsters dined
In 1984 to be precise
Tonight’s the night
J Geils Band at
Old Boston Garden
48,000 gonzo fans
Back stage passes
There was a swarm
We cut through
Peter this is Pip
Pip this is Peter
Shoved them together
Took a picture
Lasts longer
On the way home
She had a request
What about Mick
Got real close
A few times
Memories of when
Rock was young
