From the recordings Unreleasable and Rawk $ Roll (Live)
Lyrics
written by Steven Clark
Rock ain’t dead it’s just apathy it ain’t been well since the ’70’s
They cleaned out all the drugs and the sex now all you got are the poseurs left
Never really meant what it was meant to mean
Now it’s one ugly fucked up scene
Rock & Roll , Rock & Roll
It’s still alive but you’d never know
Rock & Roll, Rock & Roll
Ain’t on T.V. or the radio
Rock & Roll, Rock & Roll
Well if you want that stuff man you got to come to the show
Whatever happened to the Ramones, Iggy and the Stooges, and the Rolling Stones?
Now it’s all pre-packaged and auto-tuned, homogenized and fed with a spoon
Never really knew who that was meant to please
A soulless cesspool of mediocrity
Rock & Roll , Rock & Roll
It’s still alive but you’d never know
Rock & Roll, Rock & Roll
Ain’t on T.V. or the radio
Rock & Roll, Rock & Roll
Well if you want that stuff man you got to come to the show
Rock ain’t dead man not to me, but it ain’t been the same since the ’70’s
They drained out all the fun and sex now all you got are the pussies left
They never understood what it meant to me
Now it’s one ugly fucked up scene
