It's Still Rock and Roll to Me

Billy Joel
Glass Houses

What's the matter with the clothes I'm wearing?Can't you tell that your tie's too wide?Maybe I should buy some old tab collars?Welcome back to the age of jive

Where have you been hidin' out lately, honey?You can't dress trashy 'til you spend a lot of moneyEverybody's talkin' 'bout the new soundFunny, but it's still rock and roll to me

What's the matter with the car I'm driving?Can't you tell that it's out of style?Should I get a set of white wall tires?Are you gonna cruise the miracle mile?

Nowadays, you can't be too sentimentalYour best bet's a true baby blue continentalHot funk, cool punk, even if it's old junkIt's still rock and roll to me

Oh, it doesn't matter what they say in the papers'Cause it's always been the same old sceneThere's a new band in townBut, you can't get the sound from a story in a magazineAimed at your average teen

How about a pair of pink sidewindersAnd a bright orange pair of pants?Well, you could really be a Beau Brummell babyIf you just give it half a chance

Don't waste your money on a new set of speakersYou get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakersNext phase, new wave, dance craze, anywaysIt's still rock and roll to me

Alright, Richo!

What's the matter with the crowd I'm seeing?Don't you know that they're out of touch?Well, should I try to be a straight 'A' student?If you are, then you think too much

Don't you know about the new fashion, honey?All you need are looks and a whole lotta moneyIt's the next phase, new wave, dance craze, anywaysIt's still rock and roll to me

Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new soundFunny, but it's still rock and roll to me
