We had you trained to be so classical
|
Yes and you learned to play the guitar at school
|
But now we've caught you, you've been playing the fool
|
We don't think your musical taste is cool
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
You were too close to rock and roll
|
I paid for the teacher so I own your soul
|
|
Move out of the house, you can't use the car
|
You spend your lectures just drinking in the college bar
|
You don't wanna get a job, you won't get far
|
Pretty soon you're gonna come home, gonna need your Ma and Pa
|
|
[REPEAT CHORUS]
|
|
[SOLO]
|
|
Too close to rock and roll
|
I paid for the man I own your soul
|
Leading me on you've been a bad bad boy
|
Betcha since you've been a kid, you've been a mama's toy
|
|
Aaaaaaaaaah!!!!
|
|
Too close to, too close to, too close to
|
Too close to rock and roll
|

Too Close Too Rock
