Lyrics: Rock & Roll

When I was young, yeah I was young one time
We all been young but this one time when I was young
My buddy gave me a tape and it freaked me out
I didn't know what to do
It was like TNT, it was in my brother's room
when another time, different friend
Different house, different sound, different band
He had real long hair, put the record on
Put the needle on, oh yeah it freaked me out
But I had never done drugs, I barely brushed my teeth
I was on the floor all glassy-eyed, fucked up beyond belief
Who'd have known it would be rock & roll that would terrify me
that would haunt me so completely
Who'd have known it would be rock & roll that would terrify me
that would haunt me so completely

Yeah, you were there, summer time young love elysian fields
Halcyon bays pine forests rock quarries do I CD and a car stereo
And it freaked me out, what he said about love
That you were right there, I don't know where I was
I must owe my uncle, specter's more than I can pay
He gave us a task and some access
He showed us a .57 and a stereo debate
And it freaked me out, he had a home in the hills
We were only sixteen, thought we were the shit

Who'd have known it would be rock & roll that would terrify me
that would haunt me so completely
Who'd have known it would be rock & roll that would terrify me
that would haunt me so completely
