lyrics

Amped-up to eleven, I have seen
it in your eyes when not this stainless queen.

Harbour lights reflect on wrestling seas
that lap the town of your celebrity.
Modest though you say, a role you’re expected to hold;
the stiffness of stability never can be undersold.

Yes, I know, you like to rock.
A power chord seems to unlock.
The joyous heavy metal heart;
who knew that you’d play this part?
Mouthing screams and strumming air guitar.

On this street I’m reminded of you.
Newly-strung, the instruments on view.
Who will pick up and transform the life they lead today?
Even if just for a moment, hint at what’s been kept at bay.

Yes, I know, you like to rock.
A power chord seems to unlock.
The joyous heavy metal heart;
who knew that you’d play this part?
Mouthing screams and plucking air guitar.

Yes, I know, you like to rock.
A power chord seems to unlock.
The joyous heavy metal heart;
who knew that you’d play this part?
Mouthing screams, virtuoso air guitar.
