What is the truth about rock music?
What is the truth about rock music?
Music is a powerful, and perhaps
The most powerful medium in the world, music
Plato says
When the music of a society changes
The whole society will change
Aristotle, a contemporary of Plato's, says
When music changes there should be laws
To govern the nature and the character of that music
Lenin says
The best and the quickest way to undermine any society is through its music
Music, ladies and gentlemen, is the gift of God
It was given by man to offer praises to God
And to lift us up to Him, and to exalt Him
And so even touch the tender recesses
Of our heart and of our mind
Satan has taken music and he has counterfeited it
Convoluted it
Twisted it
Exploited it
And now he's using to hammer, hammer, hammer, hammer...
Hammer a message
Into the minds and the lifestyle of this generation
Dance of the Mad Bastards
[Intro]
Live and alive with the dead [?]!
The ultimate ultrasonic, Technicolor climax!
For all party people, [?]
The dance of the mad!
Get up, it's time
Get up, make it snappy
[Verse 1]
Dance like a psycho, a sight like nothing on earth
Keep a wide berth from anyone you might know
So no first night nerves, all first serves
All aces, straight home bases
Sweating like a pig doing a jig at the gig of the century
Because we'll never be
Told by the old school, sold the old rules
Mad and bad to know, though we're not fools
Downbeats down to earth, you down with me?
Clownin' 'round the town, step easy
Cookin' up new tricks, lookin' for a new kick
Found a new sound, found that it sticks
[Verse 2]
Heard about the bird, 'bout the plane, and the Superman?
Word is we can outlast anyone
Supercede the superfly guys who
Will concede that they are dying flies
This range of suss could be dangerous
Let's test! At best, it's religious
At worst, a thirst, bursting for the next rhyme
All times sacred, even stripped naked

[Pre-Chorus]
This damned nation, needing salvation
Reach out, teach in musical elation
Shout, get out of it, get within it
Get out of it, get within it
[Chorus]
DJ!
All the way mad and bad
All the way hyped
Play it mad, DJ! Play it bad, DJ!
All the way mad and bad
All the way hyped
[Interlude]
All the way, all the way
All the way, all the way hyped
All the way, all the way mad
All the way hyped
Are you with me? Are you with it?
[Verse 3]
A musical nasty, fast as it has to be
A catastrophe, heavy duty chaos
'Cause I'm all attitude
The dude to kickstart the party mood
Cue the truth, sleuths are never sober
The proof of youth, so move over, rover
Hey, disco king... (You've stopped dancing)
Best admit this hit's an obsession
Lost in lust, better listen to the lessons
Bright lights, big city
Broad minds, bored pretty easily
Busted just for justice sake
They can't control a soul, there's an outbreak
Of outrageous love, it's contagious
And it's here to save us
Some say, "No way! DJ, don't play
The latest, the greatest, the mad and bad way"
If it ain't music, use it, abuse it
Call it a wall of noise, but don't refuse it
[Pre-Chorus]
This damned nation, needing salvation
Reach out, teach in musical elation
Shout, get out of it, get within it
Get out of it, get within it
[Chorus]
DJ!
All the way mad and bad
All the way hyped
Play it mad, DJ! Play it bad, DJ!
All the way mad and bad
All the way hyped
[Bridge]
Dedicated to all the bores
To all the whores who forced the laws
You thought we would stop dancing
Well, you were wrong
1 and 2 and 3 and 4
5 and 6 and 7, three more
8 and 9 and 10 through 11
Kiss my ass and go to heaven
[Outro]
Y-O-U spells YOU
