Rock n' Roll's Got Me All Messed Up
City Life Blues: Rock n' Roll's Reckless Grip
Lyrics
I live my life in the city
I reside in the city, defining it as my only home.
The only place I call home
Emphasizing the city as the central place of belonging.
I live my life and it's shitty
Expressing dissatisfaction with life in the city, describing it as unpleasant.
Don't wanna be all alone
Rejecting the idea of being isolated, not wanting to be alone.
I live my life in the city
Reiterating the choice to live in the city.
That's where I spend my days
Highlighting the city as the place of daily activities.
Don't want nobody to see me
Preferring anonymity, not wanting others to witness one's life.
Don't care what anyone says
Indifferent to others' opinions, asserting independence.
Rock n roll got me all fueled up
Attributing heightened energy or inspiration to rock and roll.
Rock n roll got me all fired up
Stating the intensified effect of rock and roll, evoking enthusiasm.
Rock n roll got me a fueled up
Repeating the impact of rock and roll, emphasizing the influence.
Rock n roll got me all messed up
Describing a disorienting or chaotic state caused by rock and roll.
I don't care about words
Disregarding the significance of words, implying a focus on actions.
I just want a way out
Expressing a desire for an escape route, seeking relief from the current situation.
Rock n roll's got a hold of me
Acknowledging the gripping influence of rock and roll, likening it to a potent substance.
It's a drug there's no doubt
Characterizing rock and roll as an addictive force without doubt.
I gotta look out for more
Expressing the need for something more in life.
Now I know I won't try
Deciding not to attempt something, possibly due to the influence of rock and roll.
I'm too obsessed with this life
Admitting an excessive preoccupation with the current lifestyle.
I know I'm just telling lies
Acknowledging the act of deceiving oneself or others about the reality of life.
