Rock Is Dead #4

Hi you lady alright babe gonna love ya

When I was just a little boy, bout the age of five
I went to sleep,
I heard my mama and papa talking -
She said
We got to stop that boy, hes gettin too far out,
Hes goin wild, we gotta stop that child.
And I lay there listening, feeling bad -
You know, people, I was feeling bad.
Mama didnt like the way I did my thing.
The old lady, she didnt get with that thing.
But my daddy was a sailor, get his head around,
And he said
Boy you got to do it son, get yourself intact,
You gotta love love love love love my baby tonight.
Let me tell you baby bout the death of rock,
I used to be a boy in my home block,
Used to feel alone then I heard some news,
Bunch ocats got the rockin news.
You know I love my rocknroll people,
You know we got some fun,

And I swear to God I dont want to hear
No talk about no constitution.
And in my frame of mind I am in no mood for
No talk about no cremation.

No demonstrations, no cacitritions, no impablermations.
