Lyrics
Modern History
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.
So you wanna know what Jesus told
But say that science is at odds with those
I'm on that rock that rolls, baby
I'm on that rock that rolls, baby
On one dimension planet earth and man
In a universe we can't understand
They say that science is the king of the day
Can divine man be the descendant of apes?
Who play that rock n' roll
Who play that rock n' roll, baby, yeah
Who play that rock n' roll
The paradox of fightin' for peace
While physicists consult the buddha in dreams
There's many people but there's only one being
Like it or not
The modern fiction of man
We tellin' stories like
The future's in your hands!
In your hands, in your hands!
We on that rock that rolls
Playing that rock n' roll, baby, yeah
We on that rock that rolls
Playing that rock n' roll, baby, yeah
We play that rock n' roll! Rock n' roll!
We on that rock that rolls! Rock that rolls!
We play that rock n' roll! Rock n' roll!
We on that rock that rolls! Rock that rolls!
Rock they soul! Rock they soul!
We just rockin' your soul with that rock n' roll on that rock that rolls
