I don't like opera and I don't like ballet
and new wave French movies, they just drive me away
I guess I'm just dumb, 'cause I know that I ain't smart
but deep down inside, I got a rock 'n' roll heart
Yeah-yeah-yeah, deep down inside I got a rock 'n' roll heart

Oh, rock 'n' roll heart
lookin' for a good time
Just a rock 'n' roll heart, roll heart, roll heart
lookin' for a good time

I don't like messages or something meant to say
and I wish people like that would just go away
I guess I'm just dumb, 'cause I know I'm not smart
but deep down inside, I got a rock 'n' roll heart
Yeah-yeah-yeah, deep down inside I got a rock 'n' roll heart

Yeah, rock 'n' roll heart
searchin' for a good time
Just a rock 'n' roll heart, roll heart, roll heart
lookin' for a good time

Yeah, just a rock 'n' roll heart
lookin' for a good time
Just a rock 'n' roll heart, roll heart, yeah, roll heart
lookin' for a good time, yeah, now

Yeah, got a rock 'n' roll heart
searchin' for a good time
Got a rock 'n' roll heart
searchin' for a good time
Just a rock 'n' roll heart
yeah, searchin' for a good time
Yeah, got a rock 'n' roll heart
yeah, now, now, searchin' for a good time
Let me hear you, now
oh, let me hear you, now

How does the sky overshadow
The price of oil my friend
And who do you turn to in an actual crisis
Baby you know its always me

And all those reporters
May be distracting
Honey let me get you in my arms
Cuz when this chopper lands, I?m putting these in your hands
They?re the well laid plans that we agreed on

How come every time I see you lately
It looks like you?re on the telephone to God
Come here son you don?t seem so presidential
Let me straighten up your tie
Keep your eyes on the mob when we get out of here

You?re scaring me man
Put down that book
Won?t you please stop reading that last chapter
Because the end times, they are not in sight
And no one?s about to snatch you up
How come every time I see you lately
It looks like you?re on the telephone to God
Come here son you don?t seem so presidential
Let me straighten up your tie
Keep your eyes on the mob when we get out of here

Here we are on air force one
Goddamn I love it up in this helicopter
When we get back on the ground
Try not to let the sound of those ringing telephones from God distract you,
Mr. President
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

So your girlfriend
slammed the door shut
In your face tonight,
but that's all right
Then she took off
to the opera
With some highbrow
from the city lights
Well, you grew up on a corner
You never missed a moonlit night.

Some things never change,
they stay the way they are.
You were born to rock,
you'll never be an opera star
Some things never change,
they stay the way they are.

So you stay out all night
Gettin' fucked up
in that rock and roll bar
And you never get tired
'Cause your drugs
are in a little jar.

You were born to rock,
you'll never be an opera star.
Some things never change,
they stay the way they are.

I was born to rock!

Here's a story about Surfer Joe
He caught the big one,
but he let it go
There's somebody satisfied
with winning.

Back on the boardwalk
there's Moe the Sleaze
Sells good things
and aims to please
He's almost even but
he doesn't mind a handout.

Come on down
for a pleasure cruise
We're all going
on a pleasure cruise
Come on down
for a pleasure cruise
Plenty of women,
plenty of booze.

Give your ticket
to Moe the Sleaze
He's the one that's
weak in the knees
His pants are baggy,
but you can see them shaking.

I'll introduce you to Surfer Joe
He may be there,
I really don't know
We can smoke garfong
and watch him ride
the big one.

Come on down
for a pleasure cruise
We're all going
on a pleasure cruise
Come on down
for a pleasure cruise
Plenty of women,
plenty of booze.

Come on down, come on down
Come on down, come on.

Here's a story about Surfer Joe
He caught the big one,
and he let it go
There's somebody satisfied
with winning.

Canadian mounted baby, a police force that works
Red and black, that's their color scheme
get their man, in the end
It's all right, it's all right.

Frontenac chateau baby
I'll cross the frontier at ten
Got a whip in my hand baby
And a girl or a husky at leather's end
It's all right, it's all right
My lovely bel punice, you'd kill and you'd maim

Hornswoop me bungo pony, dogsled on ice
Make a dash for freedom baby, don't skate on polar ice
It's to thick to be sliced by the light
Of long and white polar nights
It's all right, it's all right
My lovely bel punice, you'd kill and you'd maim

 Don't damn me
 When I speak a piece of my mind
 'Cause silence isn't golden
 When I'm holding it inside
 'Cause I've been where I have been
 An I've seen what I have seen
 I put the pen to the paper
 'Cause it's all a part of me
 
 Be it a song or casual conversation
 To hold my tongue speaks
 Of quiet reservations
 Your words once heard
 They can place you in a faction
 My words may disturb
 But at least there's a reaction
 
 Sometimes I wanna kill
 Sometimes I wanna die
 Sometimes I wanna destroy
 Sometimes I wanna cry
 Sometimes I could get even
 Sometimes I could give up
 Sometimes I could give
 Sometimes I never give a fuck
 
 It's only for a while
 I hope you understand
 I never wanted this to happen
 Didn't want to be a man
 So I hid inside my world
 I took what I could find
 I cried when I was lonely
 I fell down when I was blind
 
 But don't damn me
 When I speak a piece of my mind
 'Cause silence isn't golden
 When I'm holding it inside
 'Cause I've been where I have been
 An I've seen what I have seen
 I put the pen to the paper
 'Cause it's all a part of me
 
 How can I ever satisfy you
 An how can I ever make you see
 That deep inside we're all somebody
 An it don't matter who you wanna be
 But now I gotta smile
 I hope you comprehend
 For this man can say it happened
 'Cause this child has been          
 condemned
 So I stepped into your world
 I kicked you in the mind
 An I'm the only witness
 To the nature of my crime
 
 But look at what we've done
 To the innocent and young
 Whoa listen to who's talking
 'Cause we're not the only ones
 The trash collected by the eyes
 And dumped into the brain
 Said it tears into our
 conscious thoughts
 You tell me who's to blame
 
 I know you don't wanna hear me cryin'
 An I know you don't wanna hear me deny
 That your satisfaction lies in your ILLUSIONS
 But your delusions are yours and not mine
 We take for granted we know the whole story
 We judge a book by its cover
 And read what we want
 Between selected lines
 
 Don't hail me
 An don't idolize the ink
 Or I've failed in my intentions
 Can you find the missing link
 Your only validation is living your own life
 
 Vicarious existence is a fucking waste of time
 So I send this song to the offended
 I said what I meant and I've never pretended
 As so many others do intending just to please
 If I damned your point of view
 Could you turn the other cheek
 
 But don't damn me
 When I speak a piece of my mind
 'Cause silence isn't golden
 When I'm holding it inside
 'Cause I've been where I have been
 An I've seen what I have seen
 I put the pen to the paper
 'Cause it's all a part of me
 Don't damn me
 I said don't damn me
 I said don't hail me
 Don't damn me

I know so many people who think they can do it alone
They isolate their heads and stay in their saftey zones

Now what can you tell them
And what can you say that won't make them defensive

I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself

They come on like they're peaceful
But inside they're so uptight
They trip through their day
And waste all their thoughts at night

Now how can I come on
And tell them the way that they live could be better

I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself

Now how can I come on
And tell them the way that they live could be better

I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself

Crazy, but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it's not too late
To learn how to love
And forget how to hate

Mental wounds not healing
Driving me insane
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

I've listened to preachers
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you live the role

Mental wounds still screaming
Driving me insane
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

I know that things are going wrong for me
You gotta listen to my words
Yeah

Heirs of a cold war
That's what we've become
Inheriting troubles I'm mentally numb
Crazy, I just cannot bear
I'm living with something that just isn't fair

Mental wounds not healing
Who and what's to blame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

I'm the kid that no one knows,
I live a life I never chose.
But these thoughts in my mind,
Are my own, my own.

I'm face to face with the unknown,
My scary movie will be shown.
I've got one evil mind,
Of my own, of my own.

[Chorus:]
We take from one another,
We never stop to wonder,
How it feels from the other side.
But nothing lasts forever,
When stupid turns to clever,
Why are you surprised?
Little know it all (little know it all),
Ten bucks in my hand.
Little know it all (little know it all),
Don't cry, I understand.
So!

I'm a target of the smart,
They got ambition, I got heart.
I'm analyzed and tagged,
Before I start.

So tell me who can I respect?
I feel the leash around my neck.
As I find out there's shame,
In the game (in the game).

[Chorus:]
We take from one another,
And never stop to wonder,
How it feels from the other side.
But nothing lasts forever,
When stupid turns to clever,
Why are you surprised?

And I feel like I've crawled outside the box.
And I feel like I'm sleeping when I'm not.

[Chorus:]
We take from one another,
And never stop to wonder,
How it feels from the other side.
But nothing lasts forever,
When stupid turns to clever,
Why are you surprised?
Little know it all (little know it all),
Ten bucks in my hand.
Little know it all (little know it all),
Don't cry, I understand.
You little know it all (little know it all),
Ten bucks in my hand.
Little know it all (little know it all),
Don't cry I understand.
You'll never know it all.

Yeah, I like it
Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!

I'm only five foot one
I got a pain in my neck
I'm looking up in the city
What the hell what the heck

I stare at the concrete
The girders eye high
The steel's above me
There's love in my eyes

And I'm doing the things
A five foot one man can do

I'm only five foot one
I got a pain in my heart
All the night I'm working
In the amusement park

With a bottle of aspirin
A sack full of jokes
I wish I could go home
With all the big folks

And I wish life could be
Swedish magazines
I wish life could be
Swedish magazines
I wish life could be
Anything
Ugh! Aie! Aie! Aie!
Ugh!

I'm only five foot one
Unless the time has come
I won't grow anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore

'Till I'm losing my head
I'm checkin' it twice
I'm gonna find out who's naughty and nice

And I'm doing the things a five foot one man can do

I wish life could be Swedish magazines (x3)
I wish life could be
Yeah, I wish life could be
Oooooooooohhh
I wish life could be

I wish life could be Swedish magazines
I wish life could be Swedish magazines
I wish life could be

I won't grow anymore (x3)
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore

I'm only five foot one (x3)
I'm five foot one

Oh all the money that in my whole life I did spend,
Be it mine right or wrongfully,
I let it slip gladly past the hands of my friends
To tie up the time most forcefully.
But the bottles are done,
We've killed each one
And the table's full and overflowed.
And the corner sign
Says it's closing time,
So I'll bid farewell and be down the road.

Oh ev'ry girl that ever l've touched,
I did not do it harmfully.
And ev'ry girl that ever I've hurt,
I did not do it knowin'ly.
But to remain as friends and make amends
You need the time and stay behind.
And since my feet are now fast
And point away from the past,
I'll bid farewell and be down the line.

Oh ev'ry foe that ever I faced,
The cause was there before we came.
And ev'ry cause that ever I fought,
I fought it full without regret or shame.
But the dark does die
As the curtain is drawn and somebody's eyes
Must meet the dawn.
And if I see the day
I'd only have to stay,
So I'll bid farewell in the night and be gone.

Oh, ev'ry thought that's strung a knot in my mind,
I might go insane if it couldn't be sprung.
But it's not to stand naked under unknowin' eyes,
It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.
But the time ain't tall,
Yet on time you depend and no word is possessed
By no special friend.
And though the line is cut,
It ain't quite the end,
I'll just bill farewell till we meet again.

Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time
To disgrace, distract, and bother me.
And the dirt of gossip blows into my face,
And the dust of rumors covers me.
But if the arrow is straight
And the point is slick,
It can pierce through dust no matter how thick.
So I'll make my stand
And remain as I am
And bid farewell and not give a damn.
