They say that you play too loud Well baby, that's tough They say that you got too much Can't get enough They tell you that you look a fool And baby I'm a fool for you They say that your mind's diseased, shaky stuff
And it's a Rock'n'Roll Damnation Ma's own whipping boy Rock'n'Roll Damnation Take a chance while you still got the choice
You say that you want respect Honey for what? For everything that you've done for me Thanks a lot Get up off your bended knees You can set your mind at ease My temperature's running hot I've been waiting all night for a bite of what you got
Oh, it's a hard life
Damnation, they're putting you down Damnation, all over town Damnation, cause you're way outta reach Livin' on the streets you gotta practice what you preach
Damnation, left a happy home Damnation, just to live on your own Damnation, you wanna live in sin Damnation, it's a rock'n'roll thing Damnation, just a bundle of joy Damnation, you're a toy for a boy Damnation, you got dollars in your eye Damnation, chasin' that pie in the sky Damnation, rock'n'roll- Damnation
