[Intro]
Come on, dad!

[Verse 1]
Son, it's time, you better listen
You've no idea what you've been missin'
Your mind is closed, it's so sad
Your rock and roll, it drives me mad

[Verse 2]
Son, you know these two fine ladies?
Sure as hell they'll drive you crazy
Lovely eyes, they sing like angels
Gorgeous smiles, oh, those faces

[Pre-Chorus]
But I'm a rocker, that's all I want
You will never change me (Don't even try)
A simple rocker, it's in my blood
You may as well give up, just stop
I'll never be who you want me to be

[Chorus]
But then they dragged me out to see ABBA
Oh no, right in the middle of the metal days
You know, I really thought that I would hate it
Yes, I came to mock, came to mock, stayed to rock

[Verse 3]
Son you need sophistication
Widen your appreciation
Some style and grace I beseech you
You've got no taste, I will teach you

[Pre-Chorus]
No, I'm a rocker, it's who I am
You will never change me (Come on, dad)
A simple rocker, please understand
You may as well give up, just stop
I'll never be who you want me to be

[Chorus]
But then they hauled me out to the opera
That's right, smack in the middle of puberty
I was convinced that I was gonna hate it
Yes, I came to mock, came to mock, stayed to rock

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
I can't deny my guilty pleasures
Deep down inside I hide 'em all away
No way to fight my guilty pleasures
Nobody knows, I'll never, ever say
Now watch me play

[Verse 3]
Son you need sophistication
Widen your appreciation
Some style and grace I beseech you
You've got no taste, I will teach you

[Pre-Chorus]
No, I'm a rocker, it's who I am
You will never change me (Come on, dad)
A simple rocker, please understand
You may as well give up, just stop
I'll never be who you want me to be

[Chorus]
But then they hauled me out to the opera
That's right, smack in the middle of puberty
I was convinced that I was gonna hate it
Yes, I came to mock, came to mock, stayed to rock

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
I can't deny my guilty pleasures
Deep down inside I hide 'em all away
No way to fight my guilty pleasures
Nobody knows, I'll never, ever say
Now watch me play
