You have been given a direct order to ROCK THE FUCK OUT
ROCK OUT like you were just given the last rock n' roll record on earth and the minutes are counting down to flames
ROCK OUT like you just won both showcase showdowns
ROCK OUT like the streets are empty except for you, your bicycle, and your headphones
ROCK OUT like your lips were just placed onto a break-dancing muse with legs that go all the way up
ROCK OUT like you'll never have to open up a text book again
ROCK OUT like you get paid to disturb the peace
ROCK OUT like music is all that you got
ROCK OUT like you were standing on a rooftop and the city is as loud and glowing as the river flowing below you
ROCK OUT like the plane is going down and there are 120 people on board and 121 parachutes
ROCK OUT like the streets and the books are all on fire and the flames can only be extinguished by doing the electric slide
ROCK OUT like it's Saturday afternoon and Monday was a national holiday
ROCK OUT like somebody's got a barrel pointed to your temple saying, "rock out like your life depended on it fool" because it does
ROCK OUT like your eyes are fading but you still got your ears but you dont know for how long so..
ROCK OUT like five o'clock time meant pop n' lock time
ROCK OUTlike you got a pants full of tokens and nothing to do but everything
ROCK OUT like you were the international Skee-Ball champion of the entire universe
ROCK OUT like you just escaped an evil orphanage to join a Russian circus
ROCK OUT like your hero has fallen and you were spinning your limbs until they burst into a flaming pyre of remembrance
ROCK OUT like you are enslaved in the south and dancing is all that you have to know who you are
ROCK OUT like your dead grandfather just came back to take a drive with you in your brand new car
ROCK OUT like the table was full
ROCK OUT like the neighbors are away
ROCK OUT like the walls wont fall but dammit you're gonna die trying to make them
ROCK OUT like the stereos volume knob only has the figure eight of infinity on it instead of merely numbers
ROCK OUT like it's raining outside and you've got a girl to run through it with
ROCK OUT like you're playing football in the mud and your washing machine is not broken
ROCK OUT like you threw your window open on your honeymoon because you want the whole world to know what love is
ROCK OUT like you just got a book published
ROCK OUT like you just went to your high school reunion and to find out that everyone even the women are overweight and bald except for the former homecoming queen who has just been divorced by an impotent husband and only has eyes for....you
ROCK OUT like you got a date with Heidi Klum
ROCK OUT like a shadow of a man passes behind you , drops you to your knees, you're buckling in a sweat, cold metal's pushed to your forehead, the trigger is pulled and the gun jams
ROCK OUT like you've got an empty appointment book and a full tank of gas
ROCK OUT like Jimi has returned carrying brand new guitar strings
ROCK OUT like the mangos are in season
ROCK OUT like the record player wont skip
ROCK OUT like this was the last weekend, like these were the words, like you dont ever want to forget how.
