“God Killed Rock and Roll” is the 6th track to Panic! at the Disco’s 7th album “Viva Las Vengeance”
The song pays an homage to the special relationship between fans and their musical idols, referencing how music becomes a solace to people in time of need (“They’re the hope and the prayer/When no on...
[Refrain]
They're lookin’ right you
From the posters in your room
They're the song that you sing
When you don't believe a thing
They’re the hope and the prayer
When no one else is there
[Verse 1]
A little dreamer in the glow of the receiver
Every song he played was alright
Blew out the speakers, dancin' in his sneakers
Every move he made was alright
Swingin' on a beam of light
Catch a star before it dies (Dies)
What a perfect night to fly away
[Verse 2]
Goodbye to Vegas, there was nothin' left to save us
So we drove away, it's alright
Jump in the sprinter, touring through the winter
Every show we played was alright
Singin' out our life on stage
High enough to feel no pain (Oh)
What a perfect day to fly away
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I don't really know what I know
But I'll show you everything that I can show you tonight
And I don’t know where we’re goin', but it’s goin' alright
It's alright, it's alright
Well, I don’t really know what I know
But I'll show you everything that I can show you tonight
And I don't know where we're goin', but it's goin' alright
It's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright
[Chorus]
God killed rock and roll
God killed rock and roll
No blood on the stage
No Plant, no Paige
Kiss 'em all goodbye
God killed rock and roll
God killed rock and roll
No fist through the glass
No backstage pass
'Cause God killed rock
God killed rock and roll
(Ah-ah)
(God killed rock)
God killed rock and roll
God killed rock and roll
Your Buddy Holly glasses and your plastic casters
Kiss 'em all goodbye
God killed rock and roll
God killed rock and roll
Your leather slacks and your hi watt stacks
'Cause God killed rock
God killed rock and roll
[Refrain]
They're lookin' right you
From the posters in your room
They're the song that you sing
When you don't believe a thing
They're the hope, they're the prayer
When no one else is there
They rock your mom
They rock your dad
(God killed rock and roll)
[Outro]
On the bus after the show
Starin' down a lonely road
Everybody needs a place to go
