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.
I feel the soul in the rhythm running through my bones but
The kids don't want to rock
I got the shakes and I wanna let it out like a lightning bolt
But the kids don't want to rock
I forget the feeling that it ain't appealing, it's a sign
But the kids don't want to rock
I like to turn it up real loud until you call the cops
But the kids don't want to rock
I know what I believe, it's a conspiracy
I know you fucked this up 'cause the kids don't want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
They like it slow
And easy
I wanna turn them on to Lizzy and ZZ Top but who cares
The kids don't want to rock
Everybody listens to the second record by Motorhead
But the kids don't want to rock
I got something to prove with Apocalypse Dudes but
The kids don't want to rock
Put me in a casket 'cause we're going to hell in a handbasket
The kids don't want to rock
I know what I believe, it's a conspiracy
I know you fucked this up 'cause the kids don't want to rock
I know you like to slow me, it just puts me to sleep
I know you fucked this up 'cause the kids don't want to rock
'Cause the kids don't want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
'Cause the kids don't want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
'Cause the kids don't want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
'Cause the kids don't want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
They want it and you know it, just don't know where to find it
You stole it, you hid it and knew they want to (buy[?]) it
Why do you do what you do and then just deny it
I think of your sleazy fingers you made them like it slow
And easy
I know what I believe, it's a conspiracy
I know you fucked this up 'cause the kids don't want to rock
If you had balls you'd let me right all the wrongs and empty
That part inside their hearts that makes them want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
The kids don't want to rock
