Ooohoooh yeah...

You think you're on top of the world

But you know it's really over

Runnin' round with diamond rings

And coke spoons that are overflowin'

Rock and roll is dead

But all the money in the world

Can't buy you from the place you're going to

Ooohoooh yeah...

Rock and roll is dead [x3]

You can't even sing or play an instrument

So you just scream instead

Oh yeah...

You're living for an image

So you got five hundred women in your bed

Oh yeah...

Rock and roll is dead

But it's real hard to be yourself

When you're living with those demons in your head

Ooohoooh yeah...

Rock and roll is dead [x3]

Rock and roll is dead [x7]
