Bang a Gong??? Alright...but....what???

Heard this song on the radio today...


Bang a Gong by T-Rex. (You seriously have to watch this clip on youtube...click here... the song is classic, and the outfits are killer. They are so styling)!!!

The lyrics are also awesomely entertaining! Lines like:
You're built like a car, you've got a hub cap diamond star halo
You're built like a car, oh yeah
You're an untamed youth that's the truth with your cloak full of eagles
You're dirty sweet and you're my girl.

So as for the rest of the lyrics, I've been belting them out for a good portion of my life, I think I get the "Get it on" portion, but what the heck is "Bang the gong" all about??? 

And yes, I can be a bit naive, so forgive me if it is obvious!

Song lyrics.... do you have fun with them when you actually stop and listen to them and wonder how some are so universally popular, forever?

What are some of your favorites???

I am a Putnamaniac that loves song lyrics like "Bang a Gong"!
