You think you're on top of the world But you know it's really over Runnin' round with diamond rings And coke spoons that are overflowin' Rock'n Roll Is Dead But all the money in the world Can't buy you from the place you're going to Rock'n Roll Is Dead Rock'n Roll Is Dead You can't even sing or play an instrument So you just scream instead You're living for an image So you got five hundred women in your bed Rock'n Roll Is Dead But it's real hard to be yourself When you're living with those demons In your head Rock'n Roll Is Dead Rock'n Roll Is Dead
