They couldn't see what I thought would be so obvious They hide behind the
laws they make for all of us The ministry of truth at deals with
pretense The ministry of peace that sits on defense I'm washing my hands
of what they're tryin' to do I'm breaking the rules and its for me and for
you.
I'm just a rock 'n' roll rebel I'll tell you no lies They
think I worship the devil They only see through his eyes I'm just a rock
'n' roll rebel.
They live their lives in fear and insecurity And all
you do is pay for their prosperity The ministry of fear that won't let you
live The ministry of grace that doesn't forgive Do what you will to try
and make me conform But I'll make you wish that you had never been
born Cause I'm a rock 'n' roll rebel I'll do as I please I'm a rock
'n' roll rebel I'm a free as the breeze I'm a just rock 'n' roll
rebel
They'll try playin' with your heart They know it rules your
head They only feel what bigotry feels They won't fool me again (Oh no)
(solo)
God only knows why they couldn't see that obvious Is it
because they manifest the incubus The ministry of war that got caught in the
draught The ministry of joy that still hasn't laughed When its all boiled
down and the days at an end I'll give you no bullshit and I'll never
pretend Cause I'm a rock 'n' roll rebel I'll tell you no lies They say
I worship the devil Why don't they open their eyes...I'm just etc.
