Rules of the Road Songtext
von Alice Cooper

So if you wanna be like me
Here′s the rules, one, two, three
You gotta find a killer band
Then bust your ass, you understand?

You gotta rock, you gotta roll
You gotta shock and lose control

Four, five, six, and then you lose your mind
Collect your chicks and now you're doin′ fine
Be sure you find a girl from East LA
'Cause she will never ever let you pay

So you can rock, so you can roll
So you can shock, and lose control (c'mon, boys)

These are the rules of the road
These are the rules of the road
If you wanna be hot, if you wanna be cool
You only get one shot, you gotta follow the rules
These are the rules of the road


Before you even start to board
That private jet that you can′t afford
You gotta buy a mansion and flashy car
In case you actually do become a star

And then you can rock
Then you can roll
Then you can shock
And lose control (woo)

These are the rules of the road
These are the rules of the road
If you wanna be hot, if you wanna be cool
You only get one shot, gotta follow the rules
These are the rules of the road

I′ve been at this game for a long time and I'm gonna share some wisdom with you (yeah, yeah)
Rule number one, always get the money (money)
Rule number two, remember to always get the money
And rule number three, never forget to remember to always get the money (money)
If it′s in a glass, drink it
If it is offered to you, take it
If you can drive it, drive it hard (yeah)
And if you follow these simple rules, by the age of 27
Well, you're gonna die


These are the rules of the road
These are the rules of the road
If you wanna be hot, if you wanna be cool
You only get one shot, you gotta follow the rules
These are the rules of the road
These are the rules of the road
These are the rules of the road

If you hear my words and heed them well
You′ll be heading down the road to hell
'Cause these are the rules, huh
