[Figure #1]
You ain't goin' nowhere, gonna sit 
by this pool until you fall in
Didn't know what you were getting 
into when you walked into this room
Did you, kid?

[Figure #1]
We got some girls over here, we got 
some boys over there
And they're here just for your fun
So have some dinner, baby, play some
 records

Just remember one thing, son

This is serious business
D                         C      D
Sex and violence and rock and roll

[Figure #1]
You know my head is sweating
I can't dance and I can't relax
Outside is too threatening now
I've come this far and I can't go 
back

[Figure #1]
Call up some old friends
Call up some strangers
Get me used to that French telephone
Donna Donna, educate me
But tell those girls that I'm not 
alone

Bridge:
C
Take my life and take my soul
D
Put me on the cross for all to see
C
Put my name around my neck
D
Let those people throw stones at me
