Rock 'n' Roll Is Where I Hide

Oh I should tell you

About my power

About my mysterious kink

I used to go about

Fully believing

I was invisible

The legendary

Invisible rock singer

I would open my mouth and speak forth

No blues no news just hey mate, yeah you over here, boo

Just for a moment

I would materialise

Anyway

People started to talk

Started to talk about this

Legendary mysterious loud mouth invisible rock singer cowboy

I began to act cool

Come back

Materialise

Even though I wasn′t meaning to

People began to come and see this invisible loud mouth rock singer cowboy

You know soon

People would sit behind me at cafes and say he thinks he's invisible watch

Jees you know I hate to keep em waiting i tried my best I got quite upset

Then I thought

Ahh it′s not such a bad thing

To be seen as a guy who thinks he can't be seen

Even though I know I can

It's quite a trick

I mean in certain circumstances certain places

Anything goes if you′re known

If you′ve got a name around town as a guy who'll do anything if nobody′s looking

But if any body's looking

′Cause they think he thinks he can't be seen

I mean they scare

Like they think I can′t see em

It's like I'm blind

Like I′m invisible

Ah you know soon

Everybody′s looking

Because they think I think nobody's looking

So I can′t not be seen so I'm not looking at them I know exactly where they are

And even if I was they couldn′t see me because they're too busy waiting for me to dematerialise right there in front of them

Actually

What a place to hide

I mean say you were a spy

An undercover man

Somebody on the run

What better place to disappear

What a cover

A lead singer in a rock and roll band

You′re poor

You're stoned

You're a slave to a unnameable half forgotten ambition

You′re just another guy on the lost highway

A ramblin′ man

A pirate of love

A rider on the range

A seventh son of a seventh son

A love rustler

A desperado

A bastard right royal historically entitled to be bad

The man in black Jon the conqueroo the worlds forgotten boy

Meat man Mr blues

The velvet fog the silver fox the little cloud that cried

The best dressed chicken in town
