I was born with a denim jacket on my back
And the sign of the horns in my hand
Now the only life I want to lead
Is the life of a rock and roll band
'Cos I live, I live to rock
And it ain't ever gonna stop
'Cos I live, I live to rock
And it ain't ever gonna stop
Flying out to L.A. on my 747
When I land it'll be a black night
When the pary's jumping it's like a stairway to heaven
And in the morning like a bat out of hell I'll fly
'Cos I live, I live to rock
And it ain't ever gonna stop
'Cos I live, I live to rock
And it ain't ever gonna stop

Say boy you think you're the smart one
You've got something good to say?
Say boy it don't matter
No-one at the top's listening anyway
You pick up your banner
You march down to London, you howl and you scream
Say boy it don't matter
The harlots don't care about you and your dream
Red, blue, yellow, they ain't listening
That don't mean the people ain't dreaming
Red, blue, yellow, they ain't listening
That don't mean the people ain't dreaming
Things gotta change
Say boy you think you're the right one
Your views are the ones for our song
But boy it don't matter
The people out there are not heeding your call
You get on your soap-box
The pillory stocks of the misunderstood
You're branded fanatic
Your progress is static, you can't do no good
Red, blue, yellow, they ain't listening
That don't mean the people ain't dreaming
Red, blue, yellow, they ain't listening
That don't mean the people ain't dreaming
Things gotta change
Red, blue, yellow, they ain't listening
That don't mean the people ain't dreaming
Red, blue, yellow, they ain't listening
That don't mean the people ain't
Things gotta change

Policeman he called my name
Said 'tell me baby what did you say?'
Said the 'fire has come to Earth today'
Beyond the shores of Mandalay
Well doctor tried to find my cure
Yeah pastor tried to make my soul feel pure
But I still realise we're doomed
So come on hold me
Need me
Baby
Bombs they are coming
Hold me
Need me
Baby
Baby 239 and the 205,
They've got something against me
But the only one thing that's plain to see
Is that there ain't nothing left on this Earth for you and me
Governor said he'd pull some strings
But I ain't party to the tune he sings
If you've got the funds you've got it all
Your one-way ticket out of mankind's fall
Well my brothers say
We've got nothing to lose
We've got to get our necks
Out of the dollar's noose
And I'm dreaming of when we'll find the truth
So come on hold me
Need me
Baby
Bombs they are coming
Hold me
Need me
Baby
Baby 239 and the 205,
They've got something against me
But the only one thing that's plain to see
Is that there ain't nothing left on this Earth for you and me
It's just you and me
It's just you and me against the world
We got no more worries now baby
We're gonna find our way this very day to the way we're feeling
Thousands tried to stop us
Cops and doctors want to lock us up
But we don't mind
