Long Live Rock

In the style of

The Who

Lyrics

down at the astoria
the scene
was changin'
bingo and rock were
pushing out x-rating

we were the first band
to vomit in the bar
and find the distance
to the stage too far

meanwhile
it's gettin' late
at ten o'clock
rock is dead
they say
long live rock

long live rock
i need it every night
long live rock
come on
and join the line
long live rock
be it dead or alive

people walk in
sideways
pretending that
they're leavin'
we put on our makeup
and work out
all the lead-ins

jack is in the alley
sellin' tickets
made in hong kong
promoter's in
the pay box
wonderin' where
the band's gone

back in the pub
the governor stops
the clock
rock is dead
they say
long live rock

long live rock
i need it every night
long live rock
come on
and join the line
long live rock
be it dead or alive

landslide
rocks are fallin'
fallin' down
'round our
very head

we tried
but you were yawnin'
look again
rock is dead
rock is dead
rock is dead

the place is
really jumpin' to
the hiwatt amps
till a twenty-inch
cymbal fell
and cut the lamps

in the blackout
they dance
right into the aisle
and as the doors
fly open
even the
promoter smiles

someone
takes his pants off
and the rafters knock
rock is dead
they say
long live rock
long live rock
long live rock

long live rock
live rock
long live rock
long live rock
long live rock
long live rock

long live rock
i need it every night
long live rock
come on
and join the line
long live rock
be it dead or alive
