Smoke N Roll
Smoke Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's a musical plague goin' across the land
Starts with a rash and ends in a band
Try to contain it but it's spreading wide
Getting in the way is just suicide
Call for the Doctor
But he won't bring no cure
Landslide is coming
It's knocking down your door

It's an Outrage
We've got a Rock 'n' Roll Outbreak
It's an absolute Outrage
We've got a Rock 'n' Roll Outbreak

What's with all the racket screams and noise
Someone better shut that terrible voice
Radio gone silent keeping it away
Kids got the virus from the Pirate Bay
You best believe it
ItÂŽs just a matter of time
You will receive it
It's an infectious rhyme

It's an Outrage
We've got a Rock 'n' Roll Outbreak
It's an absolute Outrage
We've got a Rock 'n' Roll Outbreak

Call on the doctor, ThereÂŽs no cure
Coming to get you, breaking down your door
It's an Outrage
We've got a Rock 'n' Roll Outbreak




It's an absolute Outrage
We've got a Rock 'n' Roll Outbreak
