"It's Only Rock And Roll" lyrics

It's Only Rock And Roll

If I could stick my pen in my heart
And spill it all over the stage
Would it satisfy you?
Would it slide on by you?
Would you think the boy is strange?
Ain't he strange?

If I could win you
If I could sing you
A love song so divine
Would it be enough
For your cheating heart
If I broke down and cried?
If I cried?

I said, I know
It's only rock and roll
But I like it
I know
It's only rock and roll
But I like it
Like it
Yes, I do
Oh, well, I like it
I like it
I like it
I said, can't you see
That this old boy
Has been a lonely?

If I could stick a knife in my heart
Suicide right on stage
Would it be enough
For your teenage lust
Would it help to ease the pain?
Ease your brain?

If I could dig down deep in my heart
Feelings would flood on the page
Would it satisfy you
Would it slide on by you
Would you think the boy's insane?
He's insane

I said, I know
It's only rock and roll
But I like it
I said, I know
It's only rock and roll
But I like it
Like it
Yes, I do
Oh, well, I like it
Yeah
I like it
I like it
I said can't you see
That this old boy
Has been a lonely?

And do you think
That you're the only girl around?
I bet you think
That you're the only woman in town

I said, I know
It's only rock and roll
But I like it
I said, I know
It's only rock and roll
But I like it
I said, I know
It's only rock and roll
But I like it
Like it
Yes, I do
Oh, well, I like it
I like it
I like it

Yes, I like it
I like it
I like it
Only rock and roll but I like it
Only rock and roll but I like it
Only rock and roll but I like it
Yeah, yeah
Only rock and roll but I like it
Only rock and roll but I like it
Only rock and roll but I like it
Only rock and roll but I like it

Only rock and roll but I like it
Only rock and roll but I like it
Only rock and roll but I like it
Only rock and roll but I like it

Yeah
I like it
Whoah, I like it
I like it
Oh, yeah
I like it
