How many times can they fill me with lies and I listen, again
Twisting the [bad word] and they re playin  around with my head O.K.
The things they will do and the things they will say
When they don t really understand
Tears fill my eyes when I hear all the cries
For the reason today.

And they don t really know even what they re talkin  about
And I can t imagine what empty heads can achieve.

Leave me alone don t want your promises no more
 Cause rock n roll is my religion and my law
Won t ever change, may think it s strange
You can t kill rock n roll it s here to stay.

Looking through eyes of time mirrors reflecting their stories [bad word] 
Promises promises, telling me all of my glories overdue.
How many times have I heard it before
And I ll probably hear it again
King of a thousand knights, pawn in a table fight Losing to you.

And they don t really know even what they re talkin  about
And I can t imagine what empty heads can achieve.
Leave me alone don t want your promises no more
 Cause rock n roll is my religion and my law
Won t ever change, may think it s strange
You can t kill rock n roll it s here to stay.

Even the rhymes that they give me in times of confession ain t [bad word]  [bad word] is obvious all for them none for us meaning you too.
The things they will do and the things they will say
When they don t really understand.
Fear of rejection I need their protection
I m making a stand.

And they don t really know even what they re talkin  about
And I can t imagine what empty heads can achieve.

Leave me alone don t want your promises no more
 Cause rock n roll is my religion and my law
Won t ever change, may think it s strange
You can t kill rock n roll it s here to stay.

Leave me alone don t want your promises no more
 Cause rock n roll is my religion and my law
Won t ever change, may think it s strange
You can t kill rock n roll it s here to stay.
