Vroom Rosebud歌詞
1.You Are Okay

I've been reading what they say in the news
Hoping that I hear back from you
I wrote you this letter of explanation
A look at things from my point of view

It's a matter of supply and demand
Field research and capital gains
Success is just a product of sex and money
I've got the looks; they've got the brains

It's a necessary part of the job
Get maybe just a little involved
But most of our dealings were strictly business
I just wanted to know

If' you're okay and it's all right

Everybody's talking about
Who's with who and who's making out
Wouldn't we be better off making music
Instead of all this sleeping around?

'Cause everyone here has a mistress
It's such a dirty business
If we put our heads together
The songs will live forever
I gotta get out of this hell-hole
I'm packing my things and I'm coming home

You're okay and it's alright
You're okay, is this alright,
if I put my hand on your thigh?

But if it's okay then it's alright with me.


2.Hollywood

A girl and a boy, are so in love.
She's going to Hollywood.
And I'll wait for you back home


3.Hello, Hello

Is there anybody here that wants to rock?
I was hoping that your answer would be so.
Should I believe your voyueristic eyes.
If the artist is good looking we can rasie the price

Refused, where is your promised future shape?
At this point in the concert, I can hardly stay awake.
Cause I believe that anyone can change.
I'm just holding on and hoping that they'll act their age.

So take your time, don't ask for more
With all we have, we all learn to ignore
As the heart and soul of music dies
It looks alive you know

Cause everyone wants a place to go
Everyone wants a smile you know
(Flickering on the late night show
Filtering on the radio x2)

So take your time, don't ask for more
With all we have, I'd rather be ignored
Am I alive? Hello Hello
Guess all signs point to no


4.Sex and Money

everyone has their different opinion of what they think I should
look like, what they think I should act like, be like, but
really in the end the only people I answer to are myself and to
God, and if I'm comfortable with what I'm doing then I'm okay
with that

you. Y'know, turn the channel, don't watch me, you don't have
to, y'know, come see my show, y'know, it's fine, y'know. Um, I'm
just being who I am, and I'm happy with it


5.Let's Get Physical

Sixteen-year-old sex sells to a middle aged man
In a board room, makes big decisions
He says, 'it's good business this voice of an angel
To put her on TV'

And they turn on the radio
And you're in our blood but your sales are slow
We'll need you take off your clothes for the good of the record
It helps if you say it's in the name of art
It's a stake that we make for the sake of art

So let's get physical
I feel like it's artistic

And the men with the cameras look deep in her soul
And they capture emotion on video
'It'd work a bit better if we could see
A little more leg'
It helps if you say it's in the name of art
It's a stake that we make for the sake of art

So let's get physical
Let's get physical
I feel like it's artistic
I feel like it's all right

He loosens his belt, saying 'One more time,
'cause every great thing takes a sacrifice.'

I'm just being who I am and I'm happy with it.
My family is proud of me for doing what I do,
and it's just kind of funny just because it's like,
God I'm really getting under your skin.

Run away as fast as you can
I think you ought to know
That you have the most beautiful voice in the world
Run away as fast as you can

'Cause all you need is love
All you need is love


6.Somebody Else

There's nobody else
But I swear I heard somebody
I'm all by myself
I must have been hearing the tv
'Cause I need to know if you love me
I need to know if you love me
Everyone knows what they're doing to you
I'll be alright I just gotta be true
True to myself
But I swear I heard somebody else


7.I Want to Rock


8.Tigers

Don't waste your innocence on tigers
You know that I can be alone, baby doll

Do you remember the times that we had?
And the years rolled by
And disappeared
And now the boys of yesterday are haunting you
They spread their lies all over town

And it's alright if you want to tell me off
And it's alright if you want to leave
I don't care

Do you remember the fight that we had
And it broke my heart to see you cry
Everybody's telling me I should stay clear
They don't care and
The world is a sad place to live
Is there somewhere else we can go?

Lately I don't feel anything
Anything in regards to you
'Cause I'm not ready for everything
Everything that I know is true
