Johnny Q. Public - Reader's Digest lyrics

Alice is a drag queen

Bowie, something in between

Other bands are looking mean

Me, I'm trying to stay clean

I don't dig the radio

I hate what the chart's pick

Rock and Roll may not be dead

But it's getting sick

All over the world disc jockeys talk insane

Every town I play is like I'm wondering why I came

The Rolling Stones are trillion-aires

The flower children, paul bearers

Beatles said "All you need is love"

And then they broke up

River took an overdose

Kurt followed so close

The whole music scene and all the

Bands are really comatose

This time last year, people didn't wanna hear

They looked at Jesus from afar, they say He's a superstar

Dear John

Who's more popular now

I've been listening to Paul's records

And I think he really is dead

It's nineteen-ninety-four

Teen Spirit has become a bore

Who's in power now?

I think I'll turn on the TV

The man on the news says

Japan is gonna beat use

We shot all our dreamers

And there's noone left to lead us

We need a solution, we need salvation

So they sent some 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

You think it's such a sad thing

When you see a fallen king

Then you find out they are only

Princes to begin with

Everybody has to chose

Whether they will win or lose

Follow God or sing the blues

And who they're gonna sin with

What a mess the world is in, I wonder who began it

Don't ask me, I'm only visiting the planet

This world is not my home

I'm just passing through
