Music/Business
When will I ever be enough?
This music business, it gets tough
They blow you off like you’re dust
and you have to pick yourself back up
I’m not the conservative type
but what happened to singing into a mic?
Some decent lyrics that you really believe in
Am I idealistic? Was I dreaming?
CHORUS:
‘Cause now I’m awake, found in a lonely place
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Where have all the good men gone?
I burn my mouth with words I didn’t want to say
I told myself that I’d be strong
but I guess I’m not that rock and roll
I never thought that it’d be easy
Prepared myself for some bleeding
Dear, you’re real, I can see
but I’m sorry, no sex, no money
And soon you’re running out of blood
banging fists on closing doors
See, my momma taught me something else
said to always stay true to yourself
CHORUS:
‘Cause now I’m awake, found in a lonely place
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Where have all the good girls gone?
I burn my mouth with words I didn’t want to say
I told myself that I’d be strong
but I guess I’m not that rock and roll
Here we go
Camera, show
Another night on the road
Baby, call me rock and roll
Living high, dropping low
got the crowd on their feet
Work against gravity
Lyrics slipped my memory
I’ll just feed them anything
I’ll just have another drink
can’t care less what you think
Sip the good life from a straw
baby ‘cause it’s rock and roll
Now I’m awake, found in a lonely place
Sex and drugs and alcohol
Where did all my heroes go?
I burn my mouth with words I didn’t want to say
I told myself it’s not that wrong
Well, I guess I’m not that rock and roll
