Rock And Roll Thugs
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.
The music is in my blood
You don't understand
The music is in my blood
You don't understand
Sleepless nights at the black and white keys
I'll let my fingers say it for me
Sometimes my spirit's still so scared
Once I put it in a melody it means so much more to me
Fate sealed, I guess this is how I feel
Sometimes I swear the lyrics write me
The lyrics write me
The melody a remedy to calm me down
You never did approve of the fix I found
Bury all the records in the backyard
When you're not looking I'll go dig them back up
You can bury my body in the backyard
When you're not looking I'll go dig myself up
And I know all about the drugs
They hide inside the music, I know, I know
I know all about the drugs they hide inside the music
And the preacher at church must've told you about them too
'Cause you came home dead set on what you had to do
You said the demons and drugs hide in rock n roll thugs
If I wanna grow up nice, I better give the music up
The melody a remedy to keep me right
You never did approve of my sleepless nights
Bury all the records in the backyard
When you're not looking I'll go dig them back up
You can bury my body in the backyard
When you're not looking I'll go dig myself up
And I know all about the drugs
They hide inside the music, I know, I know
I know all about the drugs they hide inside the music
Oh the words unwind, my hands rebel
I hide behind these notes too well
I can't pretend anymore
You're not listening, you don't understand
You're not listening, you don't understand
You're not listening, you don't understand
You're not listening, you don't understand
Bury all the records in the backyard
When you're not looking I'll go dig them back up
You can bury my body in the backyard
When you're not looking I'll go dig myself up
Bury all the records in the backyard
When you're not looking I'll go dig them back up
You can bury my body in the backyard
When you're not looking I'll go dig myself up
And I know all about the drugs
They hide inside the music, I know, I know
I know all about the drugs
They hide inside the music
