Everyone's divided and nobody's sincere Least of all the one we chose to take the wheel and steer Step aside the king has come undone Returning favors to his son And now our heroes all are dead or dying With voices in our ears "don't bother trying" We must go To Relay Road I don't wanna play nice And I don't wanna cheer For all the phony sycophants That I don't wanna hear Mommy told me live it straight and true Then somehow I ended up with you And now our heroes all are dead or dying With voices in our ears "don't bother trying" We must go To Relay Road Where a friend is a fighter A rock and roll uniter We got a creed and we got a code Pay it back to the ones before us Light a verse Explode a chorus Four on the floor is our big payload On Relay Road Iggy Sid and Joey Built this place for us In this moldy basement In the beat we'd trust Every night we'd file into that pew Drums and bass and loud guitars will do And now our heroes all are dead or dying With voices in our ears "don't bother trying" We must go To Relay Road Where a friend is a fighter A Rock and roll igniter We got a creed and we got a code Pay it back to the ones before us Light a verse Explode a chorus Four on the floor is our big payload On Relay Road And now our heroes all are dead or dying And voices in our ear "don't bother trying" We must go To Relay Road Where a friend is a fighter A Rock and roll igniter We got a creed and we got a code Pay it back to the ones before us Light a verse Explode a chorus Four on the floor is the mother lode On Relay Road
