3. You Can't Kill Rock and Roll (6:59)
How many times can they fill me with lies and I listen again
Twisting the truth and they're playing around with my head, O.K.
The things they will do and the things they will say when they don't really understand
Tears fill my eyes when I hear all the cries for the reason today
And they don't really know even what they're talking about
And I can't imagine what empty heads can achieve
Leave me alone don't want your promises no more
Cause rock n' roll is my religion and my law
Won't ever change, may think it's strange
You can't kill rock n' roll, it's here to stay
Looking through eyes of time mirrors reflecting their stories untrue
Promises promises, telling me all of my glories overdue
How many times have I heard it before and I'll probably hear it again
King of a thousand knights, pawn in a table light losing to you
And they don't really know even what they're talking about
And I can't imagine what empty heads can achieve
Leave me alone don't want your promises no more
Cause rock n' roll is my religion and my law
Won't ever change, may think it's strange
You can't kill rock n' roll, it's here to stay
Even the rhymes that they give me in times of confession ain't true
Outcome is obvious all for them none for us meaning you too
The things they will do and the things they will say when they don't really understand
Fear of rejection I need their protection I'm making a stand
And they don't really know even what they're talking about
And I can't imagine what empty heads can achieve
Leave me alone don't want your promises no more
Cause rock n' roll is my religion and my law
Won't ever change, may think it's strange
You can't kill rock n' roll, it's here to stay
Twisting the truth and they're playing around with my head, O.K.
The things they will do and the things they will say when they don't really understand
Tears fill my eyes when I hear all the cries for the reason today
And they don't really know even what they're talking about
And I can't imagine what empty heads can achieve
Leave me alone don't want your promises no more
Cause rock n' roll is my religion and my law
Won't ever change, may think it's strange
You can't kill rock n' roll, it's here to stay
Looking through eyes of time mirrors reflecting their stories untrue
Promises promises, telling me all of my glories overdue
How many times have I heard it before and I'll probably hear it again
King of a thousand knights, pawn in a table light losing to you
And they don't really know even what they're talking about
And I can't imagine what empty heads can achieve
Leave me alone don't want your promises no more
Cause rock n' roll is my religion and my law
Won't ever change, may think it's strange
You can't kill rock n' roll, it's here to stay
Even the rhymes that they give me in times of confession ain't true
Outcome is obvious all for them none for us meaning you too
The things they will do and the things they will say when they don't really understand
Fear of rejection I need their protection I'm making a stand
And they don't really know even what they're talking about
And I can't imagine what empty heads can achieve
Leave me alone don't want your promises no more
Cause rock n' roll is my religion and my law
Won't ever change, may think it's strange
You can't kill rock n' roll, it's here to stay
