Dave's most recent hits include Space Invader, a semi-homage to Space Boy and The Final Countdown (both songs sung by Dave), Eldorado, and a remake of the Wain L classic, Make Up Your Mind. Dave and A-Beat C continue to flourish when others seem to be weakening.
Some of his signature music has also been heard and recognized in the Japanese manga-based anime series "Initial D".
Eldorado
Dave Rodgers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Did he whistle on Brown?
Was his woman a sex slave?
Give me what you got on the holiday
You know the one where you went with the X's paid
You can lie down here for a good few days
Tell me what you know about a man's affliction
PC plod talk pure science fiction
Does she waddle like a duck with her big big love eggs?
Cake
Something that I can't fix
I can fix it just like this
There's nothing that can't be fixed
I can fix it just like this
Give me what you got on effin-stein
First square head leader of the street crime
Tell me what you know about rumble bumble
Did he roll our jeep in the middle of the jungle?
Bounce on his head did the nine lives rumble, rumble?
There's nothing that I can't fix
I can fix it just like this
Nothing that can't be fixed
I can fix it just like this
You, you, you, you and I, I, I, I
Back together again
This old world
You, you, you, you and I, I, I, I
Back together again
Same old world
There's nothing that can't be fixed
I can fix it just like this
There's not a thing that I can't fix
I can fix it just like this
Tell me what you know about Whistlin' Dave
Did he do his scene? Did he live in a sex cave?
Not an ounce of class in the aging brass
She did the work while he lay on the grass
I know nothing man, so sack that fast, faster, faster
There's nothing that I can't fix
I can fix it just like this
There's not a thing that can't be fixed
I can fix it just like this
You, you, you, you and I, I, I, I
Back together again
Same old world
You, you, you, you and I, I, I, I
Back together again
Same old world
Easy, easy, easy now, easy now
You, you, you, you and I, I, I, I
Back together again
Same old world
You, you, you, you and I, I, I, I
Back together again
This old world
Wunderbar, wunderbar, rumble man
You, you, you, you and I, I, I, I
Back together again
This old world
You, you, you, you and I, I, I, I
Back together again
Same old world
You, you, you, you and I, I, I, I
Back together again
This old world
You, you, you, you and I, I, I, I
Back together again
Same old world

The lyrics of the song "Eldorado" by Dave Rodgers are quite enigmatic and obscure, as they present different and seemingly unrelated images and phrases, without a clear narrative or message. It seems that the song is structured as a series of questions and requests directed at a person or a group of people, asking them to share their knowledge, opinions, and experiences on various topics and characters. The song starts with a reference to "Cowboy Dave" and his possible association with Brown and a sex slave, which could suggest a wild and unscrupulous lifestyle. Then, the lyrics move on to mention a holiday paid for by someone's exes, inviting the listener to lie down and share their secrets. The lyrics also ask about a man's affliction, which is dismissed as a product of "pure science fiction", and introduce a girl with "leather legs" and "big big love eggs", whose behavior is compared to that of a waddling duck.
The lyrics of "Eldorado" also mention other characters and events, such as "effin-stein", who could be a reference to the famous scientist and writer Mary Shelley and her novel "Frankenstein", or a misspelling of "Einstein", implying a genius or a mastermind. The lyrics also mention a "square head leader of the street crime", which hints at a rogue figure with a distinctive physical trait, and "rumble bumble", who apparently rolled a jeep in the jungle and had nine lives. The repetition of the phrase "there's nothing that I can't fix, I can fix it just like this" suggests that the singer has some kind of power, expertise, or confidence in handling any situation or problem. Towards the end of the song, the lyrics again refer to Whistlin' Dave and his alleged escapades in a sex cave, but the singer claims to know nothing about it.
Overall, interpreting the lyrics of "Eldorado" is challenging, as they resemble a stream of consciousness or a collage of random associations, rather than a coherent story or argument. The song raises more questions than it answers, and it leaves room for speculation, imagination, and personal interpretation. However, the surreal and playful tone of the lyrics, combined with the upbeat and catchy melody, make "Eldorado" a fun and memorable song, which invites the listeners to sing and dance along without worrying too much about its meaning or message.
