2. Rockin' the Paradise (3:35)
(Intro)
Hey, what you doin' tonight?
Have you heard that the world's gone crazy?
Young Americans, listen when I say
There's people puttin' us down
I know they're sayin' that we've gone lazy
To tell you the truth, we've all seen better days
Don't need no fast buck lame duck profits for fun
Quick trick plans, take the money and run
We need long-term, slow burn, gettin' it done
And some straight talkin', hard workin' son of a gun
So what you doin' tonight?
I have faith in our generation
Let's stick together and futurize our attitudes
I ain't lookin' to fight, but I know with determination
We can challenge the schemers who cheat all the rules
Come on and take pride, be wise spottin' the fools
Big shots, crackpots bendin' the rules
A fair shot here for me and you
Knowin' that we can't lose
And we'll be rockin' the Paradise
Rockin' the Paradise tonight
Rockin' in Paradise
Rockin' the paradise tonight, tonight
Tonight!
(Guitar solo)
Go, Sparky, go!
(Guitar solo continues)
Come on and take pride, be wise spottin' the fools
Big shots, crackpots bendin' the rules
A fair shot here for me and you
Knowin' that we can't lose
And we'll be rockin' the Paradise
(Rockin' the Paradise tonight.)
You know we're rockin' the paradise
(Rockin' in Paradise.) We're gonna rock you tonight
(Rockin' the Paradise tonight.)
Everybody's gonna rock, rock, rock. (Rockin' the Paradise.)
Rock ya, rock ya, rock ya, rock, ya, rock ya, rock ya, rock ya
(Rockin' the paradise tonight.) Rockin' in Paradise
(Rockin' in Paradise.) Everybody!
(Rockin' the Paradise tonight.) Come on, come on
Hey, what you doin' tonight?
Have you heard that the world's gone crazy?
Young Americans, listen when I say
There's people puttin' us down
I know they're sayin' that we've gone lazy
To tell you the truth, we've all seen better days
Don't need no fast buck lame duck profits for fun
Quick trick plans, take the money and run
We need long-term, slow burn, gettin' it done
And some straight talkin', hard workin' son of a gun
So what you doin' tonight?
I have faith in our generation
Let's stick together and futurize our attitudes
I ain't lookin' to fight, but I know with determination
We can challenge the schemers who cheat all the rules
Come on and take pride, be wise spottin' the fools
Big shots, crackpots bendin' the rules
A fair shot here for me and you
Knowin' that we can't lose
And we'll be rockin' the Paradise
Rockin' the Paradise tonight
Rockin' in Paradise
Rockin' the paradise tonight, tonight
Tonight!

(Rockin' the Paradise tonight.)
You know we're rockin' the paradise
(Rockin' in Paradise.) We're gonna rock you tonight
(Rockin' the Paradise tonight.)
Everybody's gonna rock, rock, rock. (Rockin' the Paradise.)
Rock ya, rock ya, rock ya, rock, ya, rock ya, rock ya, rock ya
(Rockin' the paradise tonight.) Rockin' in Paradise
(Rockin' in Paradise.) Everybody!
(Rockin' the Paradise tonight.) Come on, come on
