lyrics

Let's pretend we're entering the present tense
Talk to me like we used to be friends
or we used to do a shitload of drugs together
Stop me, tell me if I ain't makin' sense

Very alive, no she won't come alive
despite them tearing up the seating
Rich with disgust, we won't waste your life
If you only keep repeating:
You Can't Trust Rock & Roll

First of all, I stole this chord from another
Copped the vocal from a drifter I knew
Secondly, we corrected it until it was smothered
Stopped totally from speaking the truth

Buried alive, there's no hope for a spark
to start to fire up the fleeting
Witches discuss how to waste your life
Just stay high and keep repeating:
You Can't Trust Rock & Roll

All that I do, all I do
All that I do is for you
You Can't Trust Rock & Roll
