Rock and Roll

in between Hammersmith

and Putney Bridge

i find little to employ

seagulls on grey waters

with no indicators

i have never been a trusting boy

oh no (i'll save you, i'll starve you of sorrow)

don't tell me it is rock and roll

if you're going to darker places

if you're warming to stark disgraces

i will rush to pay your half of the toll

i will rush home

beneath the water lay the stones

where little women eat my bones

and hold no relevance to what i create

but it's my priority

so i compose life selfishly

you're sticking around but we can't wait

and poor Putney Bridge won't take our weight

oh no (i'll save you, i'll starve you of sorrow)

don't tell me it is rock and roll

if you're going to darker places

if you're warming to stark disgraces

i will rush to pay your half of the toll

i will rush home

if you're going to darker places

if you're warming to stark disgraces

i will rush to pay your half of the toll

do not tell me it is rock and roll

i will rush home
