QUEEN's "Bicycle Race" is about tripping out on LSD.
Of course, "Bicycle" refers to LSD as per the blotter art
of Alfred Hofmann riding his bike and tripping out accidently.
"Race" characterizes and LSD -session , it's like a mind-race.

All I wanna do is
Bicycle bicycle bicycle [=eat LSD]

Bicycle races are coming your way
So forget all your duties , oh yeah
Fat bottomed girls [bottomeD girLS]
will be riding today
So look out for those beauties , oh yeah

Now, we come to "fat bottomeD girLS"
Fat bottomeD girLS you make the rockin' world go round
Fat bottomeD girLS you make the rockin' world go round
So, LSD makes the rockin' world go round.
Heap big woman you gonna make a big man out of me
A "big woman" = Fat bottomeD girLS = LSD
A heap of LSD makes a big man out of him.
big man: altered perception of proportion; better man , immortal
Ain't no beauty Queens in this locality (I tell you)
This is another way of saying, this song is actually
not about [beautiful] girls but rather about "fat bottomeD girLS", ie.
lSD.
I was just a skinny lad [Skinny LaD]
-> I was just on LSD, tripped out hard

QUEEN is all about eating LSD and experiencing ego-death.
Every QUEEN song is about that.

And you thought you know what they were talkin 'bout.

Freddie Mercury chose his name wisely - he is the messenger of Wisdom;
this Wisdom in turn is evoked by an LSD session.

LOL - just what I was thinking. Being tripped out of your head on LSD
clearly does nothing for your spelling either ...

Now, if he can explain where Star Wars, Rolls Royces & mortgages fit in ....
on the other hand, no perhaps he shouldn't!

So it's not about the Tour De France "bicycle race" passing through Montreux
where they were recording the album after all. Fancy that!

Mahler and Havelock Vetinari - seperated at birth.

On a side note, Havelock Vetinari is a Terry Pratchett character from
his Discworld series.

Yeah, I agree. It seems like he's the first who's tripping out on LSD,
not Queen.

Maybe he's actually Syd Barrett. :)

Golly gosh, you are correct. Bicycle Race is about DLS.
Cor blimey, there should be laws against promoting such a
dangerous collection of letters.
I wouldn't be surprised if Queen had other songs about Depo,
Caconie and Horein.
Be aware kids!
