T. Rex - Trelawny Lawn 8/8/68
★ Marc Bolan ★
The flowing mane of pain (cough) 1 2 3 4
★ Verse 1 ★
The flowing mane of pain swells on Trelawny Lawn
Stark handsome eyes decide the unicorn
Is a beast of borrowed wisdom
Like a thrush in the yielding harvest field
The prophet deems snow
★ Verse 2 ★
The silent stork of sadness scans Trelawny Lawn
The lion, the unicorn it's horn in the lap of Beth
Laments the dawn
Beguiled, the scribish jacket-man his cap a skull-of-rat
Is but a pawn
★ Verse 3 ★
Oh sky, your eyes embrace is to vicious for my wheat
The foaming Earthguard whinneys to his leaden feet
The bullfinch rumbles
The lavish lion aslanically scythes the hay
The unicorn bids you stay
Li li li li li la

Biography
However, creative differences led to Took's departure and his replacement by Mickey Finn in 1969. Bolan then transformed Tyrannosaurus Rex into the electric-guitar driven T. Rex, ushering in the glam rock era. With hits like "Ride a White Swan" and "Get It On," the band skyrocketed to fame, becoming one of the most popular acts in the UK during the early 1970s.
T. Rex's albums, such as Electric Warrior and The Slider, received critical acclaim and solidified their status as pioneers of glam rock. Bolan's charismatic stage presence and catchy, sexually charged lyrics captivated audiences and influenced countless artists. However, by the mid-1970s, Bolan's personal struggles with cocaine addiction and disillusionment with the music scene led to a decline in the band's popularity.
In an attempt to reinvent himself, Bolan explored soul and disco music, but tragically, his life was cut short in a car accident in 1977. Despite his untimely death, T. Rex's legacy lived on, influencing a new generation of musicians and solidifying their place in rock history. Marc Bolan may have left this world too soon, but his music continues to resonate with fans around the globe.
