(Verse 1) 
A 
Alice is a drag queen 
Bowie, somewhere in between 
Other, bands are looking mean 
Me I'm trying to stay clean 
D 
I don't dig the radio 
I hate what hte charts pick 
Rock and roll may not be dead 
But it's getting sick 
E 
All over the world 
Disc jockeys talk insane 
A 
Every town I play 
Is like I'm wondering why I came 
 
(Verse 2) 
A 
The Rolling Stones are trillionaires 
The flower children paul bearers 
Beatles said "All You Need Is Love"  
And then they broke up 
D 
River took and overdose 
Kurt followed so close 
Tho whole music scene and all the 
Bands are pretty comatose 
E 
This time last year 
People didn't want to hear 
A 
They looked at Jesus from afar 
They say he's a superstar 
 
(Bridge) 
A 
Dear John 
Who's more popular now 
I've been listening to Paul's records 
And I think he really is dead 
 
(Verse 3) 
A 
It's nineteen-ninety-four 
Teen spirit has become a bore 
Who's in power now 
I think I'll turn on the TV 
D 
The man on the news says 
Japan is gonna beat us 
A  
We shot all dreamers  
 And there's no one left to lead us 
E 
We need a solution, we need salvation 
A 
So they sent soe people to the moon  
To gather information 
They brought back a big bag of rocks 
It only cost 13 billion buckaroos 
Must be some really nice rocks 
 
(Verse 4) 
A 
You think it's such a sad thing 
When you see a fallen king 
Then you fine out they were only  
Princes to begin with 
D 
Everybody has to chose 
Whether they will win or lose 
A 
Follow God or sing the blues 
And who they're going to sin with 
E 
What a mess the world is in 
I wonder who began it 
A 
Don't ask me 
I'm only visiting the planet 
 
This world is not my home 
I'm just passing through
