Lyrics

MR ROCK N ROLL


He was born in a restless age
Condemned a killer without a case
They said It's shocking so perverse
Too much alcohol sex and drugs


They call him Mr Rock n Roll
He plays it fast loud and hard steals the show
They call him Mr Rock n Roll
He plays it fast loud and hard, never lets go


He's the devil to those that hate
But to fallen angels he's a saint
He's got the lovers hypnotised
With pulsating beat and flashing lights

Chorus


He's a prophet of the coming age
He's getting stronger everyday
Splits the airwaves bends the mind
Excites the body leads the blind

Chorus
