Subject: Help with Kristy Vant, "Chrissy, my little Chromosexual"

Written By: Foo Bar on 06/29/08 at 12:21 am

Another thread reminded me of Kristy Vant's one-hit (hit?) :-) wonder Chrissy, My Little Chromosexual, which has aired on Dr. Demento every few years ever since its origin in 1982. And since the lyrics aren't available online, and since the audio streams from the past few months of Demento's show are available online, here's my stab at it.  Can anyone fix the (?uncertain?) parts, or correct the lines I got flat-out wrong?

A dog (eight dog?) for custom chrome,
The junkyard is my second my second home,
When it gets to transmission, I'm an intellectual -
...I'm a chromosexual.

CHORUS:
Chrissy, my little chromosexual!
Chrissy, my love is ineffectual!
Lusty as can be with chromosexualty,
"Get out of my way, I'm a chromo."

They caught me makin' love to a '59 Ford,
I was bumpin' on the bumper and kissin' the dashboard,
Steamin' up the windows of a Chevy van,
"Chrissy's got her chrome, she don't need no man!"

(Chorus)

I hear my friends say behind my back
"Chrissy is a chromo, Chrissy is a chromo!"
They're just jealous of my '57 Cadillac.
When you ? talkin' mixin' ? motors, I'm an intellectual,
"She'll run you down, she's a chromosexual!"

(Chorus)
"I squeal my wheels when the boys ? me"
Chrissy, be a chromo, I don't mind!
I'll bring you all the hubcaps I can find
I'll drive you crazy with my steering wheel,
You can feel my stick shifter, solid chrome steel!
?Will my? Chrissy be my baby, it'll be so good?,
We're crawlin' together underneath the hood,
Honey, I don't care if you love chrome,
"We'll get married and live in a mobile home!"

(Chorus, repeat, end)

Why didn't I hear it that way first?  Thanks!  (Umm, do you remember anything else I got wrong?  I just relistened to the song and I'm still not convinced of the rest of the lines I guessed at.  I mean, it's only been 30 years...)

But either way, I'm sold on "ape dog for custom chrome", and thanks for all the laughs.
