No, it’s not the hairdo, some kind of hoodoo, Voodoo Child
Hand in my pocket while the time flew by, shaking my clenched fists to the sky and,
I see right through you, you dig your heels in or cut and run,
Gonna stare straight into the sun, happiness gotta be more than a warm gun
Rut-stuck from the gut, I’m getting’ mine, tired of hearing that same old line
Johnny come lately, asleep at the wheel, it’s what you DO, not how you FEEL,
Full racks, no half-stacks here, fully functional, the latest gear
Slam in drive, it’s a green light go, I’m over living in slow-mo
And you ain’t seen nothing yet, feast your eyes on me step up, place your bets
New thing going on, buckle up, settle in, gotta get gone, been standing still too long
New thing going down, head in the clouds feet on the ground
Baddest man in the whole damn town- just like that Leroy Brown
It’s not hard to tap into it, get yourself through it and hold that line
Keep banging out the classics, insist, raise your fist in the air cause it’s sink or fly
Gonna leave ‘em in the dust,no time for the fussin’, hustilin’ making up for lost time
Don’t blink or you’ll me miss me, you’ll see, ask me no questions, I’ll tell you no lies
Try to get to get down with the upper-cut (boom!), larger-than-life, power nap in the green room
Never let ‘em see ya sweat, like Joan Jett, got another dime? ‘Cause I love that rock and
Rollin, rollin’, rollin’ over Bethoven, (stick a fork in this one, ‘cause it’s done)
No half-measures, I’m predicting the weather, all the way to eleven, cause louder is better
(New thing ‘bout to go down, take you to funky town, everybody move to the sound)
