[ti:Ballad Of Mott The Hoople]
[00:00.68] Ballad Of Mott The Hoople - Mott The Hoople
[00:10.31] I changed my name in search of fame
[00:14.62] To find the midas touch
[00:19.18] Oh I wish I'd never wanted then
[00:23.99] What I want now twice as much
[00:28.74] We crossed the mighty oceans
[00:32.68] And we had a few divides
[00:37.93] But we never crossed emotion
[00:41.93] For we felt too much inside
[00:46.68] You know all the tales we tell
[00:51.62] You know the band so well
[00:54.99] Still I feel somehow we let you down
[01:05.36] We went off somewhere on the way
[01:09.30] And now I see we have to pay
[01:13.80] The rock'n'roll circus is in town
[01:34.80] Buffin lost his child-like dreams
[01:38.80] And mick lost his guitar
[01:42.80] And verden grew a line or two
[01:47.50] And overend's just a rock'n'roll star
[01:52.81] Behind these shades the visions fade
[01:56.55] As I learn a thing or two
[02:00.62] Oh but if I had my time again
[02:04.99] You all know just what I'd do
[02:10.30] Rock'n'roll's a loser's game
[02:13.80] It mesmerizes and I can't explain
[02:18.68] The reasons for the sights and for the sounds
[02:26.92] We went off somewhere on the way
[02:31.62] And now I see we have to pay
[02:36.93] The rock'n'roll circus is in town
[03:30.36] So rock'n'roll's a loser's game
[03:34.43] It mesmerizes and I can't explain
[03:38.87] The reasons for the sights and for the sounds
[03:47.68] The greasepaint still sticks to my face
[03:51.55] So what the hell I can't erase
[03:54.86] The rock'n'roll feeling from my mind
[04:08.80] From my mind from my mind from my mind
[04:36.11] From my mind from my mind from my mind
[05:00.99] From my mind
