They said "you're not normal, |
|
Why don't you sing R&B?" |
|
I say "I've got no rhythm and I got no blues, |
|
I'm as happy as can be" |
|
They said "how can you not |
|
Bop to hip hop?" |
|
I said "I most certainly do, |
|
Did you not see me dancing the other night |
|
Like the girls on Channel U?" |
|
Yeah |
|
I can wind down low |
|
Be like the girls in the videos |
|
But for me that's much too slow |
|
Because I prefer rock and roll |
|
I say, yeah |
|
I can wind down low |
|
Dance like the girls in the videos |
|
But for me that's a no-no |
|
'Cause I prefer rock and roll |
|
They say "why d'ya wear a shirt and tie? |
|
Now that's a bit bizarre" |
|
I said I like to look good when I go on stage |
|
Strumming my guitar |
|
I like to sing my songs about real life things |
|
Like good times and romance |
|
And I prefer to do it in my skinny jeans |
|
Than miniscule hot pants |
|
('cause this baby got no back) |
|
Yeah |
|
I can wind down low |
|
Be like the girls in the videos |
|
But for me that's much too slow |
|
Because I prefer rock and roll |
|
I say, yeah |
|
I can wind down low |
|
Dance like the girls in the videos |
|
But for me that's a no-no |
|
'Cause I prefer rock and roll |
|
Why can't people just let me be? |
|
I'm only putting out what comes best to me |
|
Some people get their kicks from other things |
|
But I get mine from wood and strings |
|
Yeah |
|
I can wind down low |
|
Be like the girls in the videos |
|
But for me that's much too slow |
|
Because I prefer rock and roll |
|
I say, yeah |
|
I can wind down low |
|
Dance like the girls in the videos |
|
But for me that's a no-no |
|
'Cause I prefer rock and roll |
|
Yeah |
|
I can wind down low |
|
Be like the girls in the videos |
|
But for me that's much too slow |
|
Because I prefer rock and roll |
|
I say, yeah |
|
I can wind down low |
|
Dance like the girls in the videos |
|
But for me that's a no-no |
