Robert Swipe - The Spirit of Rock N Roll Lyrics

You're a damaged baby
With a black star on your face
You're thinking that you're maybe gonna
Quit the human race
And p[erhaps you'll start a new one
Somewhere up in space
If you only had a spaceship
It could be a better place
You've been so close to heaven
But they shut the pearly gates
The Devil was so eloquent that
Heaven can wait

You're just a victim of the world
And they're trying to crush your soul
But you've got the spirit
Of rock n roll

You're a broken home child with
Cat's eyes and banshee screams
And now you're running wild with all your
Futile hopes and dreams
Because you know that nothing's sacred and
The world's not as it seems
So you just smile like Buddha
And leave Jesus to the sunbeams
You've been so close to heaven
But they shut the pearly gates
The Devil was so eloquent that
Heaven can wait

You're just a victim of the world
And they're trying to crush your soul
But you've got the spirit
Of rock n roll
But you've got the spirit
But you've got the spirit
But you've got the spirit
Of rock n roll - oh yeah
But you've got the spirit
But you've got the spirit
But you've got the spirit
Of rock n roll - oh yeah
