The Evils of Rock & Roll
I feel faint
My heart is beating like a drum and I cant think of nothing but sinking
My knees are weak
My head is pounding from a sound that life can just stop without blinking
Im sinking
Im sinking down
Well, youve reached the top
You can stay there til you flop
Think your managers got your back
Hes counting money by the stacks
Its slipping through the cracks, dont you know
Its the evils of rock and roll
Youre on a high what a feeling and you cant stop
Youll end up strung out and reeling, til you drop dead
WelI, I feel Ive been double crossed
When I think of the friends Ive lost
Its all part of the cost, dont you know
Its the evils of rock and roll
You think youve got it made
But your stars about to fade away
Wont be getting paid anymore
Its the evils of rock and roll
Youre in for one hellava ride
Its more like suicide
Its the evils of rock & roll
My heart is beating like a drum and I cant think of nothing but sinking
My knees are weak
My head is pounding from a sound that life can just stop without blinking
Im sinking
Im sinking down
Well, youve reached the top
You can stay there til you flop
Think your managers got your back
Hes counting money by the stacks
Its slipping through the cracks, dont you know
Its the evils of rock and roll
Youre on a high what a feeling and you cant stop
Youll end up strung out and reeling, til you drop dead
WelI, I feel Ive been double crossed
When I think of the friends Ive lost
Its all part of the cost, dont you know
Its the evils of rock and roll
You think youve got it made
But your stars about to fade away
Wont be getting paid anymore
Its the evils of rock and roll
Youre in for one hellava ride
Its more like suicide
Its the evils of rock & roll
