Johnny Q. Public - Reader's Digest Lyrics
l. norman) Alice is a drag queenBowie, something in betweenOther bands are looking meanMe, I'm trying to stay clean I don't dig the radioI hate what the chart's pickRock and Roll may not be deadBut it's getting sickAll over the world disc jockeys talk insaneEvery town I play is like I'm wondering why I came The Rolling Stones are trillion-airesThe flower children, paul bearersBeatles said "All you need is love"And then they broke up River took an overdoseKurt followed so closeThe whole music scene and all theBands are really comatose This time last year, people didn't wanna hearThey looked at Jesus from afar, they say He's a superstar Dear John Who's more popular now I've been listening to Paul's records And I think he really is dead It's nineteen-ninety-fourTeen Spirit has become a boreWho's in power now?I think I'll turn on the TV The man on the news saysJapan is gonna beat useWe shot all our dreamersAnd there's noone left to lead us We need a solution, we need salvationSo they sent some people to the moon to gather information They brought back a big bag of rocks It only cost 13 billion buckaroos Must be some really nice rocks You think it's such a sad thingWhen you see a fallen kingThen you find out they are onlyPrinces to begin with Everybody has to choseWhether they will win or loseFollow God or sing the bluesAnd who they're gonna sin with What a mess the world is in, I wonder who began itDon't ask me, I'm only visiting the planet This world is not my home I'm just passing through
