Lyrics

Rebel Rock Me

C'mon!

I'm as solid as a rock

Throw me at the powers that be

I'm as solid as a rock

Throw me at the powers that be

I'm as user friendly as a lead-filled glove

Rebel rock me

Hey!

I've got money in the bank

Come with me, you can have it for free

I've got money earning interest in the bank

Come with me, you can have it for free

I've got assets as big as holes up in the sky

Rebel rock me

Hey! Hey!

I'm as heavy as a crowd in East L.A

Fling me at the oppressor and flee

I'm as heavy as a crowd in East L.A

Fling me at the oppressor and flee

I'm a seething burning moving mass of love

Rebel rock me

Hey! Hey!

Rebel rock me

Hey hey hey

Rebel rock me
