Oy vay.
Eery, wb man. Good to see you. Long time, for sure.
I have no idea how far down the Lyrics thread is buried. As usual, I lack the drive to seek it out.
Sooo, I'll just post the lyrics to the tune I'm listening to right now. A blast from the past for sure, and while I love hearing it again, it makes me feel pretty damn old hehe (since I was listening to this in school).
Rock n' Roll Rebel
Ozzy Osbourne
They couldn't see what I thought would be so obvious,
They hide behind the laws they make for all of us.
The Ministry of Truth that deals with pretense;
The Ministry of Peace that sits on defense;
I'm washing my hands of what they're tryin' to do...
I'm breaking the rules, and it's for me and for you
I'm just a rock and roll rebel, I'll tell you no lies
They think I worship the devil,
They only see through his eyes.
I'm just a rock and roll rebel.
They live their lives in fear and insecurity,
And all you do is pay for their prosperity.
The Ministry of Fear that won't let you live;
The Ministry of Grace that doesn't forgive;
Do what you will to try and make me conform...
But I'll make you wish that you had never been born.
Cause I'm a rock and roll rebel, I'll do as I please.
I'm a rock and roll rebel, I'm as free as the breeze.
I'm just a rock and roll rebel.
They'll try to win your heart...they know it rules your head.
If they could read between the lines,
You know they'd see the real hate.
God only knows why they couldn't see the obvious...
Is it because they manifest the Incubus?
The Ministry of War that got caught in the draft;
The Ministry of Joy that still hasn't laughed;
When it's all boiled down and the day's at an end,
I'll give you no bull**** and I'll never pretend.
Cause I'm a Rock and roll rebel, I'll tell you no lies.
They say I worship the devil...why don't they open their eyes?
I'm just a rock and roll rebel.
