Rockin' Bones

Oh no, say it ain't so! Lux Interior of the Cramps passed away yesterday of a pre-existing heart condition.

While saddened to hear this, I think the best tribute comes directly from a Cramps song:

Roll On! Rock On! Raw Bones!
There's still a lot of rhythm in these Rockin' Bones

I wanna leave a happy memory when I go
I wanna leave something to let the whole world know
That the Rock 'n Roll daddy has a done passed on
But my bones will keep a rockin' long after I've gone

Roll On! Rock On! Raw Bones!
Well, There's still a lot of rhythm in these Rockin' Bones

Well, when I die don't you bury me at all
Just nail my bones up on the wall
Beneath these bones let these words be seen
"This is the bloody gears of a Boppin' Machine"

Roll On! Rock On! Yeah, Raw Bones!
Well, There's still a lot of rhythm in these Rockin' Bones

I ain't a worried about tomorrow, just a thinkin' about tonight
My bones are getting restless and I do it up right
A few more times around a hardwood floor
Before we turn out the lights and close the door

Roll On! Rock On! Raw Bones!
Well, There's still a lot of rhythm in these Rockin' Bones

Still, what a surprise...
