[Verse 1]
He goes by like summer, he don't like to be told
I want badly to touch him, but I know that he scolds
Yeah, oh yeah
He goes by like summer, ever fast, ever slow
He goes high like a gull and like a shark, he goes low
Does it hurt, can you stand that I'm fucking the band?
If you tell me you love me, then you know that I'll go
[Pre-Chorus]
Get a little mystery inside me
I can feel our histories entwining
[Chorus]
Don't worry, Daddy, I'm not messed up
It's just the words from the birds that pick me up
With a heavy heart or fancy-free
Oh, pretty laddy, I can't let go
I'm in love with a boy called Rock 'n' Roll
And I know he'll never die to me
[Verse 2]
He gets into my brain, through my ears like a worm
He goes right through the skull
Oh, all the way down, down to my groin
He is there when I'm crying, every tear he has known
But he shows me his fire, and my fears they are gone
[Pre-Chorus]
I get a little ecstatic beside him
Oh, Rock 'n' Roll, I can feel my fantasies unwinding
[Chorus]
Don't worry, Daddy, I'm not messed up
It's just the words from the birds that pick me up
With a heavy heart or fancy-free
Oh, pretty laddy, I can't let go
I'm in love with a boy called Rock 'n' Roll
And I know he'll never die to me
[Bridge]
I don't wanna live a life alone without you, boy
I wanna live a life alone
Don't wanna head on out alone
Without your three minutes, heading out's a bore
I don't wanna live a life alone without you
Since I heard you on the radio
Now I don't wanna hear another song without you three
Tell me when you're coming home
[Chorus]
Don't worry, Daddy, I'm not messed up
It's just the words from the birds that pick me up
With a heavy heart or fancy-free
Oh, pretty laddy, I can't let go
I'm in love with a boy called Rock 'n' Roll
And I know he'll never die to me
