Rock ‘n’ Roll Code
[Verse 1]
You got a lotta love from the crowd tonight
Now you get to hang with your best friends
One of them burned you some new CDs
And one of them has a new boyfriend
Well, everybody lives on the far side of town
But give them a lift if you're able
You'll be together for breakfast again
Same hangover, different tables
Starbucks and half of a bagel
[Chorus]
You're doing alright
You might explode
And you might break, might break, might break
The rock 'n' roll code
The rock 'n' roll code
[Verse 2]
You're talking in tongues at the top of your lungs
A private and beautiful language
I've seen you drinking your rock 'n' roll tea
And eating your rock 'n' roll sandwich
You don't play with drugs unless they're prescribed
By a notable family physician
All of the things that you can live without
Are notable by their omission
Let other folks make the decisions (Oh well)
[Chorus]
You're doing alright
On overload
And you might break, might break, might break
The rock 'n' roll code
The rock 'n' roll code
[Verse 3]
Well, open up the gates 'cause we're sailing to town
Just like the Spanish Armada
Well, here comes the Holiday, Hampton, or Quality
Best Western, Comfort, Ramada
I got the tea bag, got the hot water
Baby, if you got the honey
We'll coat our throats, go onstage and emote
And we'll outlast the Duracell bunny
Every day's shiny and sunny
[Chorus]
And we're doing alright
Yeah, oh well, we might explode
And we might break, might break, might break
Might break, might break
The rock 'n' roll code
Oh yeah, the rock 'n' roll code
The rock 'n' roll code
The rock 'n' roll code
