I Wrote A Book About Rock And Roll by The Mr. T Experience Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1999

Let me tell you something you don't seem to understand
I don't really care about your crappy local band
Don't you tell me I can't tell you what to do
I can on the whole
'Cause I work for a magazine
And I wrote a book about rock and roll

I wrote a book about rock and roll
I wrote a book about rock and roll
I think rock and roll is wonderful
And I wrote a book about rock and roll

I know words like "sobriquet," "malaise," and "plutocrat"
And I compare the Shaggs to Wittgenstein
How cool is that?
Oh, you don't?
I didn't think you would
Are my references outta control?
Sometimes I even stump myself
But it's all in my book about rock and roll
I wrote a book about rock and roll
I wrote a book about rock and roll
Rock and roll is in my soul
So I wrote a book about rock and roll

Hey, yeah yeah
Rock and roll
Hey, yeah yeah
Rock and roll

If you start doubting me
There's something you should see
Take a look at these thousands of CDs
No one has more than me
And I got all of them for free

Hey, thanks for the free CD
I can sell it at the store down the block
And don't be surprised if I say, "Kiss my ass"
That's how rock and rollers talk (like me)
But you better treat me right
'Cause I'm mean and powerful
But you'll never be a reference
In my next book about rock and roll

I wrote a book about rock and roll
I wrote a book about rock and roll
Rock and roll is wonderful
So I wrote a book about rock and roll
Hey, yeah yeah
Rock and roll
Hey, yeah yeah
