Bigger Than Kiss
Teenage Bottlerocket Lyrics

Detroit couldn't rock itself out of a paper bag
Detroit, a city known for its rock music, is not good enough at rock to even escape a paper bag.

Gene Simmons looks kinda cool
Gene Simmons, a member of Kiss, is attractive and stylish.

But Paul Stanley kinda looks like a jag
Paul Stanley, another member of Kiss, is unattractive and resembles a jaguar.

Ace Frehley can play guitar
Ace Frehley, a member of Kiss, is capable of playing the guitar.

But he ain't no fucking Kerry King
Ace Frehley is not as talented as Kerry King, a guitarist from another band.

So get your ass out of the way
Move aside and make way for the upcoming rock revolution.

Here comes a rock revolution
A new and exciting time for rock music is on the horizon.

Listen up cause I'm about to sing
Pay attention because a great song is about to be performed.

The creatures of the night
Fans of Kiss who are known as 'creatures of the night'.

Can't hold a candle to this
Kiss is not as good as the upcoming rock band.

We'll be kickin' ass we'll be takin' names
The new rock band will be aggressive and successful.

When we're bigger than Kiss
The new rock band will surpass Kiss in popularity.

I never thought cocaine
Cocaine, a drug, was not expected to be good.

Could be as good as this
The feeling of being in a successful rock band is comparable to the effects of cocaine.

We'll live our lives in alcoholic bliss
The band members will enjoy an exaggerated party lifestyle due to their success.

Rock!
An expression of enthusiasm for rock music.

Me and Charlie we have it loud
The singer and someone named Charlie enjoy playing rock music loudly.

Yeah you know we rock and roll all night
The singer and Charlie play music all night.

Paul Stanley fell down on stage and broke a hip
Paul Stanley had an accident on stage and injured himself.

Let's hope he's not alright
The singer hopes that Paul Stanley is not unharmed.

The ladies don't like old men
Women are not attracted to older men.

Now my love gun is the one in demand
The singer's 'love gun,' a metaphor for his penis, is now wanted by women.

And we're gonna go down in history
The band will be remembered for their contributions to rock music.

As the world's greatest rock 'n' roll band
The band believes they are better than any other rock band in the world.

Calling Dr. Love hey geta load of this
Referencing a song by Kiss, the singer calls for attention to the band.

Ray beat the piss out of Peter Criss
A member of the new band assaulted a member of Kiss.

Now we're bigger than Kiss
The new band has surpassed Kiss in popularity.
