Classic Rock

Classic rock Played so softly Zooming Grooving Got it playing So quietly Though it’s kind Of metal Rocking But It brings back Cool memories And I love My music But all those commercials But even those There so funny Always selling insurance And always pushing Warranties Offering tidbits About John Lennon And Michael Jackson Buying all Beatles Music rights And I guess That’s why Sir McCartney Suddenly embraced Michael Jackson And loved all His music When before We wasn’t into it And Paul got it Back Made John really mad And George suddenly Wasn’t so spiritual And Ringo Really started Heavy drinking Funny how One little tidbit Mixed with Hard music Can illuminate things Making you think Life’s too much Of a business And come to think Of it Paul gave a lot Of the stuff Back to the other Beatles And they Pretty much Got a long Again Although John Held a big grudge But Yoko Had a head For business And got his Fair share As they kind Of saw it And they Kind of got along Until John Got wasted By an ass Who half thought He was John Asked for John’s autograph And ended The best show Around And the NYork Post Bought a photo Of dead John Dying on the ground He could no longer Sing those beautiful songs And people were screaming The Post is just a business And Paul kept on rocking Making all kinds of music People screaming He’s too commercial He’s too damn corporate And it goes on and on Stevie Wonder Is now singing This song About how he misses Those days as a child When life was easy And free Yeah, I remember Playing ball in the alley Digging that little Jewish girl Across the alley In some ways I had it real bad But I didn’t know Life didn’t seem Like a business Nuns gave me The answers And I didn’t have All these damn questions And it seemed Pretty nice Taking the nun’s advice Playing third base It was always my position Right through graduate School But by then I had too many questions And it didn’t seem So magical Charlie Hustle Was an all-star And a great manager But he threw the series Cause the mobsters Got to him Gave him so much money So he could afford All those hunnies But somewhere along The line I learned to tow The line But started loving These questions Finding things out And life became magical And I liked baseball Even more Even a little polo Highlights, a little basketball And soccer’s really peaceful And adore Spanish Music Liked Selena Maybe more than The Beatles Always into Classical, jazz You name it Cause they let me Be at peace With the fact That life Is a business. And remember How I loved Selena Everyone that knew me Really saw it And a gun Blew her away Cause one of her Business managers Thought she was her And stole from her And took her away Her fan’s Were never the same Her husband Chris Is a wonderful Man Does everything he can To show Selena Didn’t see it all Like a business And he’s like me He asks a hell Of a lot of good questions And he loves All kinds of music And returning To performing Playing with a hard Edge again Just heard him Practicing Sharing his video With me So we can all Hear him lamenting With that Heavy metal influence That’s asking Why life Has to be So much Of a business. 4.4.23.
