Memphis, Egypt

(Rock 'n Roll!) [Verse 1] Destroy your safe and happy lives before it is too late The battles we fought were long and hard Just not to be consumed by rock n' roll Rock n' roll [Verse 2] Capitalismos, favorite boy child, we must apologize Up in the rafters a rope is danglin' Spots before the eyes of rock n' roll Rock n' roll [Verse 3] We know the devil and we have shaken him by the hand Embraced him and thought his stinking breath was fine perfume Just like rock n' roll Rock n' roll [Verse 4] East Berlin can't buy a thing, there's nothing they can sell me Walk through the wall no pain at all I'm born inside the belly of rock n' roll Rock 'n' roll [Verse 5] It's something to sell your labor for when hair sprouts out below I'm a microscope on that secret place Where we all want to go, it's rock n' roll Rock 'n' roll
