Ooh yeah, ha, yeah
Take me to the room where the red's all red
Take me out of my head -'s what I said
Yeah, ow
Hey, take me to the room where the green's all green
And from what I've seen it's hot, it's mean
Eh

Gonna use my stack
It's gotta be Mack
Gonna get me on the track
Got a dragon on my back

Take me to the room where the beat's all round
Gonna eat that sound yeah yeah yeah yeah
Take me to the room where the black's all white
And the white's all black, take me back to the shack shack

She don't take no prisoners
She gonna give me the business
Got a dragon on my back
Hey it's a dragon attack

Get down, I said so, wooh
Hey hey, alright, yeah, oh yeah eah eah eah

Low down - she don't take no prisoners
Go down - she gonna give me the business
No time - yeah chained to the rack
Show time - got a dragon on my back
Show down - go find another customer
Slow down - I gotta make my way
From me yeah oh
Oh wrong way yeah
Oh wrong way
Hey
Alright
Oh look out

    General Comment:Actually it's been confirmed Mercury wrote this one. It and a bunch of others are supposed to be about this fantasy world he and his sister made when they were kids

    Marshall speaker stacks, perhaps?

    Anyway - I love the bass on this one.

    General Comment:I like the way dengeist laid this out... so then maybe the black and white stuff is related to what someone else said, it sounds like a black funk band, so the band likes to mix up black and white styles... but even more importantly, Black and White were what they called the two sides of Queen II, which was made way back in the day when a lot of their songs were about dragons, ogres, etc. So maybe this is Brian winking and letting off a little steam about being seen that way, when he really would prefer more funk and guitar solos. It also fits with his previous style of making songs that seem lewd/edgy actually be more innocent, like "Fat Bottomed Girls" actually being about his set of guitars...

    General Comment:A great song to listen to when stoned and drunk! It almost sounds like it's a black funk rock band playing and singing it.

    General Comment:I think it's about drugs (Freddie was a cokehead) and heroin is substituted for coke so it won't be so obvious..."go find another customer" is obviously meant for the drug-dealer, but I don't understand why Queen or Freedie would write this except that it is a filler to show-off their new found "disco" sound...Queen, like the Stones, were never preachy or regretted any decadance, in fact, Freddie often celebrated decadence...and the drums are definetly drum machines... but it's also about sex..."gonna use my stack"...and everytime Freddie sings the pronoun "she" in a song always gender-bend it. Also, it could be about gay and S/M bars and bath-houses where Freddie was hanging out during this phase of Queen's career..."chained to the rack"?! Anyway, it's agreat song and underappreciated...in my Top 5 Queen songs.

    General Comment:i love the drum solo in this! it could be well about kickin heroin but no one in queen ever did heroin, freddie did a lot of coke at one stage n brian never did drugs but it has got a good sentiment n was good at superbowl. (wasnt there but u kno, the dvd indicates it was good)

    General Comment:Fantastic guitar and percussion. It does seem to be about kicking heroin. I have also heard the dragon in relation to heroin, on Steely Dans "Time Out Of Mind". In that song he says tonight when I chase the dragon. Mack was a producer on "The Game" album and I guess he is who they mention in the song. I don't think that the heroin addiction is first person or just an observation of other people behavior.

    General Comment:Also it leaves out an important verse:

    Gonna use my stack
    It's gotta be Mack
    Gonna get me on the Track
    Gotta Dragon on my back
