Loud Rock and Roll Music

At one time loud rock and roll music Would drive me up the wall Guess I must have really mellowed out It no longer upsets me at all Either that or I'm losing my hearing That could be the reason Whichever the case it's sure a relief To finally get rid of those demons My son Scottie is into loud music Middle aged but still hasn't lost it So loud it blasts you out of your chair Your knickers get bunched up and knotted Each to his own that's the way it should be No one should complain or criticize We're all here for a very short while So the secret is to compromise At one time loud rock and roll music Would drive me up the wall Guess I must have really mellowed out It no longer upsets me at all (perhaps it's my loss of hearing?)

Is there any other way to listen to Rock and Roll? I think not.

Love a bit of rock and roll Jack but keep at at an enjoyable volume, Where's the joy of bursting your ear drums till they bleed. Tom
