It’s Only Rock ’n Roll (Live 1990)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] If I could stick my pen in my heart And spill it all over the stage Would it satisfy you, would it slide on by you Would you think the boy is strange? Ain't he strange? If I could win you, if I could sing you A love song so divine Would it be enough for your cheating heart If I broke down and cried? If I cried [Chorus] I said I know it's only rock and roll but I like it I know it's only rock and roll but I like it, like it, yes, I do Oh, well, I like it, I like it, I like it I said can't you see that this old boy has been a lonely [Verse 2] If I could stick a knife in my heart Suicide right on stage Would it be enough for your teenage lust Would it help to ease the pain? Ease your brain If I could dig down deep in my heart Feelings would flood on the page Would it satisfy you, would it slide on by you Would you think the boy's insane? He's insane [Chorus] I said I know it's only rock and roll but I like it I know it's only rock and roll but I like it, like it, yes, I do Oh, well, I like it, I like it, I like it I said can't you see that this old boy has been a lonely [Bridge] And do you think that you're the only girl around I bet you think that you're the only woman in town [Chorus] I said I know it's only rock and roll but I like it I know it's only rock and roll but I like it, like it, yes, I do Oh, well, I like it, I like it, I like it I said can't you see that this old boy has been a lonely I said I know it's only rock and roll but I like it I know it's only rock and roll but I like it, like it, yes, I do Oh, well, I like it, I like it, I like it I said can't you see that this old boy has been a lonely [Audience Applause]
