Lyrics
Ode To The Rock 'N' Roller
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It feels like I've been doing this for a million years
Every note has been played before in this exact order too
And none of those buttholes out there really want anything new
So I just keep on cookin' this ol' familiar stew and it's kind of rank
Hey, won't you look at me now
They seem to think that I've lost it somehow
Hey mama look at this
I'm shooting cascades of boogaloo jizz
I am in a state of drunk as fuck on a stage in a city somewhere
But I know my guitar and I know this song
Cause I've been singing it for far too long
What's that noise in the background
I'm the noise in the background
Wait, what's this
Suddenly I'm sucked into a place
Maybe a different dimension, I don't know
This is a place where they make music
That's not written to accompany the vacuuming of your flat
Whoa, what the hell was that
Like I was running around on a fucked up music sheet
One minute I was rollin' on a river and
In the next I got caught up in the rites of spring
I can't help wondering if the audience felt it too
If I close my eyes and squeal they look pretty pissed out there
What's that noise in the background
I'm the noise in the background
I opened my heart and my soul for you
But you didn't understand
Your mind was locked
You just thought I was trying to be cool
I might have been somewhere else in time
And space but you looked at me as if I was possessed
Through a bolt of electric shock
Clear as a mountain stream
It came to me
What I've always known
And forever killed a lifelong dream
They didn't come to listen they came here to drink
So play those three chords over and over
So they don't have to think
It feels like I've been doing this for a million years
Every note has been played before in this exact order too
And none of those buttholes out there really want anything new
As long as the beat keeps pumpin' (play creedence)
And if the pint of lager is cold
Flick of a switch and the organ is grinding
Be that noise in the background
Just keep it on the backbeat
The rhythm of drinking
Till the singer goes "yeah yeah ye-ah!"
Everything is yeah, you guessed it
Everything is just fine
