Lyrics

[Verse 1]
1971
We all heard the starters gun
New York is such a pity
But at Max's Kansas City we won
[Verse 2]
We all shot the shit at the bar
Oh, with Johnny O'Toole and his scar
And then old Clive Davis said
He's surely gonna make us a star
I'm gonna make you a star
Just the way you are
[Verse 3]
But with all his style
I could see it in his eyes
That we is goin' on trial
It was no surprize
[Verse 4]
The boys kept kickin' ass
As usual, time would tell
But some bitch to the choir
Throw water on the fire of hell
She loved to show and tell
Lord, she loved to tell
[Verse 5]
But with all our style
You could see in our eyes
That we are still on trial
And it was no surprize
No surprize
No surprize
No surprize
[Verse 6]
Midnight lady
Situation fetal
Vaccinate your ass with your phonograph needle
[Verse 7]
I say looky here, friend of mine
You scratch like you need calamine
Flamingo boots, soles a creakin'
Still in love in Puerto Rico too
[Verse 8]
Riding on wheels of hell
Smoking our axle grease
Oh, the backstage is rockin'
And we're coppin' from my local police
That's right, the local police
Or the justice of peace
[Verse 9]
But with all our style
You could see in our eyes
That we are still on trial
Baby it's no surprize
No surprize
No surprize
No surprize
[Verse 10]
Rock n' roll, junkie whore
Got my foot inside the door
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock
Nobody's keepin' score
[Verse 11]
Bad times, go away
Come again some other day
Topaz and sassafras
Ah, keep the blues away
[Verse 12]
Candy store and rock n' roll
Corporation jellyroll
Play the singles, it ain't me
It's programmed insanity
[Verse 13]
ASCAP or BMI
Could ever make a mountain fly
If Japanese can boil tears
Then where the fuck's my royalties?
Ah
Yee-uh-hoo
Uh-uh-uh-uh-ow
