  • Had to make do with a worn out rock and roll scene
    The old bop is gettin' tired need a rest
    Well you know what I mean
    Fifty eight that was great
    But it's over now and That's all
    Somethin' harder's coming up
    Gonna really knock a hole in the wall
    Gonna hit ya grab you hard
    Make you feel ten feet tall

    Well I hope this baby's gonna come along soon
    You don't know it could happen any ol' rainy afternoon
    With the temperature down
    And the jukebox blowin' no fuse
    And my musical life's feelin'
    Like a long Sunday School cruise
    And you know there's one thing
    Every single body could use
    Yeah listen to me baby
    Let me tell you what it's all about
    Modern times rock and roll
    Modern times rock and roll

    Get you high heeled guitar boots and some groovy clothes
    Get a hair piece on your chest
    And a ring through your nose
    Find a nice little man who says
    He's gonna make you a real big star
    Stars in your eyes and ants in your pants
    Think you should go far
    Everybody in this bum sucking world
    Gonna know just who you are
    Look out
