I'm livin' the Rock N' Roll dream
After workin' all these years
I would never give up
There's this little obligation
I can't run away
Has to be done every time
The stage's set
We're ready to roll
Our nightshift has begun
Why do we do a soundcheck?
It's never the same while playing the show
Only an illusion
The sound guy is never there on time
Now I'm singin' in a rockin' band
Sometimes the backstage is our home
With all the memories good and bad
(but mostly good)
We love to be on the road
(on the road)
It's worth hundred and ten percent
Except the soundcheck we have to make
Snare drum
Bass drum
The drum set is on fire baby
Amps on
Mics set
We gonna burn the place down
Why do we do the soundcheck?
I was twenty four when I started
Only an illusion
I've lost notion of time and every dime
Why do we do a soundcheck?
Only an illusion
Never the same while playin' the show
Why do we do a soundcheck? (Never the same while playin' the show)
