We were never rock'n rollers you and I We never were that young, we never got that high We were never rock 'n rolllers but we get by But we get by. Well I stood in front of mirrors and pretended to play All the hits on the radio All the Peter Paul and Mary and Dylan and Joan And I dreamed of the Time when the songs would be my own And I could be a popstar too. And meanwhile oer there a world away And you were playing rock 'n roll in bars All the Elvis and the Comets And Rock around the Clock Anything at all as long it was rock As long as it could take you to the stars Rpt . And now look at us here in middle age And we're living all the dreams we have We travel the world playing our guitars In concert halls and clubs and smoky little bars And you know it doesn't seem half bad Our songs'll never make it to the charts we know And we'll never have a number one There's no one screaming at us As we board our planes We live our lives in peace with our modicum and fame And smile as the rock stars run Repeat
