Rockpile - They Called It Rock lyrics

Well, they went and cut the record, the record hit the chart And someone in the newspaper said it "was art" Disco Ca**anova said "it's heavy on the riff" The local teeny bopper band was playin' it to d**h They called it rock, they called it rock They called it rock, they called it rock Well, the telephones are ringing, the boys are getting hot They're jetting out to Rio and some other sunny spots Some senoritas say "The singers sound terrific" Their personal appearances are stopping the shops They called it rock, they called it rock They called it rock, they called it rock Hey long distance its a rock and roll romance CBS is going to pay a great big advance Hey Atlantic come on take chance Arista say they "love you but the kids can't dance to it" Well, they cut another record, it never was a hit And someone in the newspaper said it "was sh**" The drummer is a bookie, the singer is a who*e The ba** player's selling 'cause he never would have won They called it rock, they called it rock They called it rock, they called it rock Sing it Hey long distance its a rock and roll romance CBS is going to pay a great big advance Hey Atlantic come on take chance Arista say they "love you but the kids can't dance to it" Well, they cut another record, it never was a hit And someone in the newspaper said it "was sh**" The drummer is a bookie, the singer is a who*e The ba** player's selling 'cause he never would have won They called it rock, they called it rock They called it rock, they called it rock They called it rock, they called it rock They called it rock
