Lyrics
Well I know that rock and roll used to be more than rock and roll And jazz don't mean what they play late at night And high energy disco was the music of the gays And the black and white minstrels are white But I've got to believe in the golden glow The sinking sun, the money and the light So me and some honky tonk women gonna rock tonight Give me rock and roll, give me aggressive normality Some ba-ba-ba banal spirituality 'Cause I'm so free and so unbelieveably tough It's never loud enough Life of an office worker Rock and roll, rock and roll forever I've never been to New Orleans or Memphis Tennessee But I've heard about those places many times And the cars and food round here just ain't fast enough for me And that legendary good time's something I just can't seem to find But I've got to believe in the golden glow So take me to a show tonight Me and some hot sweet mama's gonna rock tonight Give me rock and roll, give me aggressive normality Some ba-ba-ba banal spirituality 'Cause I'm so free and so unbelieveably tough It's never loud enough Life of an office worker Rock and roll, rock and roll forever I'm not so dumb as I look I know this whole shebang is just a trick with lights and lasers Behind the flashbombs and the backdrop, behind the juvenile fantasia Striplights and computers wait for me just like reality I'm not so dumb as I look, I know this razzmatazz Is just the same old rock guitar And those polite, tight-lipped Japanese businessmen Are bigger than the big rock stars Those polite, tight-lipped Japanese men Drive bigger, faster cars I know, but please Let me rock and roll 'til I lose control Give me rock and roll, give me aggressive normality Some ba-ba-ba banal spirituality 'Cause I'm so free and so unbelieveably tough It's never loud enough Life of an office worker Rock me to the end of the American Empire Rock me to the end of the American Empire Rock me to the end of the American Empire Rock me to the end of the American Empire Rock me to the end of the American Empire
