Todd Rundgren - The Death Of Rock & Roll Lyrics
Just the other day I got a call from a friendI heard what you been playin and I think its a sinWhy cant you make a living like the rest of the boysInstead of fillin your head with all that synthesized noise?Jackals wait nearby, watching rock and roll dieAnd no one dared to help itVultures fill the skyI thought we was supposed ta, supposed ta be freeBut we all got soldIt must be the death of rock and rollThe critics got together and they started a gameYou get your records for nothingAnd you call each other namesThings got out of hand and somebody got soreNow were all tuning up for the rock and roll warTime to take up sides, helping rock and roll diePick up your check at the windowNo one left to cryI thought we was supposed ta, supposed ta be freeBut we all got soldIt must be the death of rock and rollNobody paid, nobody played, nobody stayedJust my lonely guitarNobody paid, nobody stayed, nobody playedJust my lonely guitar
