Tomorrow's episode is all about the history of bowling technology. Pins, pinboys, automatic pinsetters, rubbers, resins, polymers! Oh, so much chemistry and mechanical engineering.
But this week's lively soul/funk groove is all about the dreaded 7-10 split. Hope you're enjoying our new Season 3 house band. Lyrics below.
[Verse 1]
Eight went down
Eight
Went
Down
I heard 'em fall
Heard
Them
Fall
Two still up
Two stand wide
On the left
On the right
[Pre-Chorus]
That lane is quiet
Men stand still
Two pins waitin'
Waitin' on me
[Chorus]
Sev!
Ven!
Ten!
Seven-ten
Corner, corner
Nothing 'tween
Sev!
Ven!
Ten!
Seven-ten
Worst two pins
Man ever seen
[Verse 2]
Four steps
Count 'em out
One
Two
Three
Slide
Thumb out
Fingers last
Ball rolls
Moving fast
[Pre-Chorus]
That lane is quiet
Men stand still
Two pins waitin'
Waitin' on me
[Chorus]
Sev!
Ven!
Ten!
Seven-ten
Corner, corner
Nothing 'tween
Sev!
Ven!
Ten!
Seven-ten
Worst two pins
Man ever seen
[Bridge ]
It's rolling
It's rolling
Right board
Right board
Hit that wall
Hit that wall
Come across
Come across
Take 'em both
Take 'em both
[Final Chorus]
Sev!
Ven!
Ten!
Seven-ten
Corner, corner
Nothing between
Seven
Ten
Seven-ten
Watch me
Watch me now
[Outro ]
Rolling
Rolling
Seven
Ten
