They say that you play too loud Well baby that's tough They say that you got too much Can't get enough They tell you that you look a fool And baby I'm a fool for you They say that your mind's diseased Shake your stuff [Chorus] And it's a rock 'n' roll damnation Ma's own whippin' boy Rock 'n' roll damnation Take a chance while you still got the choice You say that you want respect Honey for what? For everything that you've done for me Thanks a lot Get up off your bended knees You could set your mind at ease My temperature's running hot I've been waiting all night for a bite of what you got [Chorus] Damnation, they're puttin' you down Damnation, all over town Damnation, cause you're way outta reach Livin' on the streets you gotta practice what you preach [Chorus] Damnation, left a happy home Damnation, to live on your own Damnation, you want to live in sin Damnation, it's a rock 'n' roll Damnation, just a bundle of joy Damnation, you're a toy for a boy Damnation, you got dollars in your eye Damnation, chasin' that pie in the sky Damnation, rock 'n' roll Damnation
