Only Rock Can Save Us Now
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.
Don't call the authorities oh no
They won't believe a word you say
It's an alibi on a blank sheet of paper
You keep turning and turning it over to the next page
But those eyes those pale blue and white wyes
that woke me up in the middle of the night
Spun me around and around and around in my room
So why should I feel sympathy for you
Hey kids rock and roll
before the devil comes to take your soul tonight
Whoa oh, whoa oh, oh oh oh
Hey kids rock and roll you can stay young
and you'll never grow old and die
Whoa oh, whoa oh, oh oh oh
Now I can't even walk down the street
What if people looked at you
the way they're looking at me
It's like I'm caught in a dream sequence
It's been cut up, looped, and now its stuck on repeat
Oh no this is what I was afraid of
I let him in and he got to the ones I love
Tell everyone that you know
This is how it feels to lose control
Well I hope that I'm wrong but I know
that only rock and roll can save us now
