Only Rock'n'Roll

get up at half past three

still I'm drunk I cannot see

where have I been? What have I done?

and what happened to me last night?

at first I turn the music on

listening to a punkrock song

my mom is coming in, shouting at me

she calls me deadbeat, scamp and wannabe

and I say

go away! I don't wanna talk to you

go away! coz I got better things to do

go away! maybe I got different goals

go away! because it's only rock'n'roll

yeah, it's only rock'n'roll

we have a gig at a local club

no sound-check - everything's fucked up

but then we enter the stage and start to play

no one wants to hear us but we're rocking anyway

at once it's still and the light's go out

the organizer screams and shouts

you are too hard, too fast, too loud

he doesn't like us, so he kicks us out

go away! I don't wanna talk to you

go away! coz I got better things to do

go away! maybe I got different goals

go away! because it's only rock'n'roll

yeah, it's only rock'n'roll

go away! I don't wanna talk to you

go away! coz I got better things to do

go away! maybe I got different goals

go away! because it's only rock'n'roll

yeah, it's only rock'n'roll
