I feel faint
My heart is beating like a drum and I can't think of nothing but sinking
My knees are weak
My head is pounding from a sound that life can just stop without blinking
I'm sinking
I'm sinking down

Well, you've reached the top
You can stay there til you flop

Think your managers got your back
He's counting money by the stacks
It's slipping through the cracks, don't you know
It's the evils of rock and roll

You're on a high what a feeling and you can't stop
You'll end up strung out and reeling, til you drop dead

WelI, I feel I've been double crossed
When I think of the friends I've lost
It's all part of the cost, don't you know
It's the evils of rock and roll

You think you've got it made
But your star's about to fade away
Won't be getting paid anymore
It's the evils of rock and roll

You're in for one hellava ride
It's more like suicide

It's the evils of rock & roll
