Me and my friends gonna make a pile of money
Gonna check it out every day
Me and my wife gonna need every penny
Cause we're throwing it all away
But I'm changing my tune
And I'm breaking away
Me and my friends we're rugged little rockers
And we're lazing away the day
Hot wax jacked-up on the television
And forgetting about the pay
But I'm changing my tune
And I'm breaking away
Breaking away
Four rockers rollin'
With a poet in the wings
Waiting to blow his heart away
Beanos with the road-crew
Postcards to the wife
Stating the menu of the day
Flying through 'til breakfast
Sleeping on the plane
Looking a good deal
Better than we'll ever feel again
Is it really worth it?
Could it all be real?
Am I just living out a dream?
Sitting in a hotel
Falling of the stage
Tuning in to Wonga Queen
Old men in boys' clothes
Has gone beyond a joke
Skin me another
And pass along the Wiskey and the Coke
Me and my friends are hating everybody
Who was telling us what to say
Heads down rockin' on up and down the country only
Living from day to day
And I'm changing my tune
And I'm breaking away
Breaking away
(Rossi / Parfitt / Bown) Me and my friends gonna make a pile of money Gonna check it out every day Me and my wife gonna need every penny Cause we're throwing it all away But I'm changing my tune And I'm breaking away Me and my friends we're rugged little rockers And we're lazing away the day Hot wax jacked-up on the television And forgetting about the pay But I'm changing my tune And I'm breaking away Breaking away Four rockers rollin' With a poet in the wings Waiting to blow his heart away Beanos with the road-crew Postcards to the wife Stating the menu of the day Flying through 'til breakfast Sleeping on the plane Looking a good deal Better than we'll ever feel again Is it really worth it? Could it all be real? Am I just living out a dream? Sitting in a hotel Falling of the stage Tuning in to Wonga Queen Old men in boys' clothes Has gone beyond a joke Skin me another And pass along the Wiskey and the Coke Me and my friends are hating everybody Who was telling us what to say Heads down rockin' on up and down the country only Living from day to day And I'm changing my tune And I'm breaking away Breaking away Explain Request ×
