Whats the matter with the clothes Im wearing?
"Cant`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 till you spend a lot of money.
Everybodys talkin``bout the new soundFunny, but its still rock and roll to me.
Whats the matter wiht the car Im driving.
"Cant`t you tell that its 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 sentimental
You best bets a true baby blue
Continental."
Hot funk, cool punk, even if its old junk.
Its still rock and roll to me.
Oh, it doesnt matter what they say in the papers
`Cause its always been the same old scene.
Theres new band in town.
But you cant get the sound from a story in a magazine...
Aimed at your average teen.
How about a pair of pink sidewinders
And a bright orange pair of paints?
"You could really be a Beau Brummel baby,
if you just give it half a chance.
Dont waste your money on a new set of speakers,
you get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakers."
Next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways.
Its still rock and roll to me.
Whats the matter with the crowd Im seeing?
"Dont you know that theyre out of touch?"
Should I try to be a straight Astudent?
"If you are then you think too much. Dont you
know about the new fashion honey? All you needare looks and a whole lotta money."
Its the next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
Its still rock and roll to me.
Everybodys talkin bout the new sound
Funny, but its still rock and roll to me.
