This is your story. Read it and weep.
You're such an open book you deprive me of my sleep
And when it's all read and done I wouldn't say I feel numb
In fact, i don't feel a single one thing except for maybe dumb
(It may be dumb)
So pay no mind to my verses
Cause I just wanna play (rock and roll)
I just wanna play (rock and roll)
Yeah, I just wanna play (rock and roll)
And roll my blues away
Humans being human. I'm not surprised.
I've got x-ray vision goggles to see through all your lies
And judging by your faces, the room is on fire
It looks like a funeral for a queen with a gas chamber choir
And their singing "Hallelujah"
But pay no mind to my verses
Cause I just wanna play (rock and roll)
I just wanna play (rock and roll)
I just wanna play (rock and roll)
Yeah, I just wanna play (rock and roll)
And roll my blues away
