The power chord rings out like a hymn
Even if we find a way in
We're still outsiders in this land
The mountain is high and stony
The top can get pretty lonely
When you finally make it, my friend
You say, forgive me if I don't understand
Tell me, what is it again that you wanted?
What do you want?
What do you want?
What do you want?
I want electric guitars that don't know when to stop
I want a singer I'm not sure whether he'll lose it or not
I want the drummer combustin, from playing rhythm too hot
Like 765 exploding Charlie Watts
I've been longing for the taste of sweet Virginia
Her siren song can get in ya
I wonder if you hear it too
Keep your light on, I'll keep the engine running
If spontaneous human combustion
Is how this ends, what can we do?
You say, forgive me if I don't understand
Tell me, what is it again that you wanted?
What do you want?
What do you want?
What do you want?
I want electric guitars that don't know when to stop
I want a singer I'm not sure whether he'll lose it or not
I want the drummer combustin, from playing rhythm too hot
Like 765 exploding Charlie Watts
Seven-six-five-four-three-two
Look out for number one
'Cause here's looking at you, kid
10-nine-eight-seven-six-five
Put that kick pedal to the floor
And let that rhythm drive
