Rock You Like the '80s (live)

“All right Pittsburg this next one is song I did with my stepmom Charllote from my solo record so I’m gonna do this solo and I expect you mother fuckers loose you voice singing it” (Crowd cheer) “I can’t fucking hear you!” (loud crowd roar) “Thats fucking better!” [Intro — Spoken/Shouted] Turn it up! Turn it loud! We’re taking you back! Back to the ’80s! [Verse 1] Singing about a time so long ago, Playing with my Rubik’s Cube, Spinning all my Motörhead records, With nothing in the world to lose. Watching cartoons on a lazy Saturday, Not a single worry on my mind. Running wild and living free— It was the greatest time! [Pre-Chorus] “Turn back the clock, Let the memories roll! Crank up the guitars, And let the good times take control!” [Chorus] (Crowd singing chorus ) We’re gonna rock you like the ’80s! Singing songs of a simpler time! We’re gonna rock you like the ’80s! Turn it up and leave today behind! Sony Walkman playing, While I’m riding on my bike. Playing cards against the spokes, Making thunder through the night! We’re gonna rock you like the ’80s! Those were the days to truly be alive! [Verse 2] Keg parties deep in the woods, Parachute pants and neighborhood bands. Gas was surely cheaper than today, And freedom was right in our hands. Riding outside on our bikes all day, Trying to make it home on time. Before the streetlights flickered on, We ruled the neighborhood every night! [Pre-Chorus] “No phones tracking where we went, No screens telling us what to do. Just a road, a bike and a couple of friends, And an endless sky of blue!” [Chorus] We’re gonna rock you like the ’80s! Singing songs of a simpler time! We’re gonna rock you like the ’80s! Turn it up and leave today behind! Movies were great you had the breakfast club, 16 candles and the Cusack comedies too We had Mike Freddie, Jason and Chucky scaring you all out of your seats And The Lost Boys and Near Dark setting vampire trends We had It..Legend…Clue payed so well by Tim Curry… The butler did it. We Aliens Gremlins and Star Wars too “We miss you Bill Paxton and Tim Curry” We’re gonna rock you like the ’80s! Those were the days to truly be alive! [Post-Chorus] The ’80s were loud! The ’80s were wild! The ’80s made us feel alive! Raise your fists and turn it up— We’re bringing back the good old times! [Verse 3] Sitting on the porch in the summer heat, Drinking Clinton’s iced tea from the carton. Laughing with our friends until the sun went down, Never caring when tomorrow started. Comic shops and record stores, Every corner held something new. Getting lost inside Tower Records, Searching all day for something cool. And in our hands we held the music— Cassette tapes and shiny CDs, Physical media, something real to touch, Reading liner notes like they were poetry. [Verse 4] “The King of Pop was ruling the world, But heavy metal ruled our souls! Leather, denim, screaming guitars— Rock and roll was in control!” [Pre-Chorus] Every album meant something, Every song could change your life. We didn’t only hear the music— We felt it burning deep inside! [Chorus] “ common on you guys raise the roof of this mother fucking stadium” “We’re gonna rock you like the ’80s! Singing songs of a simpler time! We’re gonna rock you like the ’80s! Turn it up and leave today behind! We’re gonna rock you like the ’80s! Those were the days to truly be alive!” [Bridge — Slow Build] Riding outside on our bikes all day, With the summer sun above. Trying to make it home before the streetlights, Living on laughter, music and love. No matter how many years have passed, That fire will never fade. Put on that leather, tease up your hair— Tonight we’re going all the way! [Guitar Solo] [Spoken Word — Kate Lead Singer] “Doc, could you pull out that DeLorean? Let’s fire her up to eighty-eight miles per hour! We’re going back to the ’80s!” [Breakdown — Crowd Chant] Big hair! Fast cars! Heavy metal! Loud guitars! “Cassette tapes and CDs! Neon lights! Physical media in our hands— Reading liner notes all night! Raise your fists— We’re rocking tonight!” [Final Chorus] We’re gonna rock you like the ’80s! Singing songs of a simpler time! We’re gonna rock you like the ’80s! Turn it up and leave today behind! Sony Walkman playing, While we’re riding on our bikes. Playing cards against the spokes, Making thunder through the night! We’re gonna rock you like the ’80s! Let the memories live on “Thank you Pittsburgh you been fucking amazing Good Night!”
