The Great Escape Lyrics

1, 2, 3, 4

Sold your system for a ticket

To a concert a year away

Nothing beat the thrill of a rock show

But now it's so cliche

There was 1 band for everyone

You'd never leave until it's done

Defend your right to escape for the night

Where the hell is rock and roll

Happy times and letting go?

I miss the songs that take me far away

Where is good old rock and roll?

We lived fast grew up slow

I need the songs that take me far away

Where are they?

'Cause back in the day

The world had anthems

With something to say

If I could go back, back, back in time

I'd watch The Who lead the way

'Cause back then there was no net

The front of the stage was as close as you could get

Now there's all access for everyone

The damage is done

Where the hell is rock and roll

Happy times and letting go?

I miss the songs that take me far away

Where is good old rock and roll?

We lived fast grew up slow

I need the songs that take me far away, far away

It doesn't matter you wanna die

For tonight we sing it

Your dead end job has sucked you dry

But tonight we sing it

Tonight we sing as 1

1, 1, 1

Where the hell is rock and roll

Happy times and letting go?

I miss the songs that take me far away

Where is good old rock and roll?

We lived fast grew up slow

I need the songs that take me far away

Back then things weren't innocent

When big hair bright lights

And cigarettes ruled the world

And made me want to play my life away
