[Verse]
I wanna feel, I wanna try
I wanna rock in the city tonight
I wanna deal, don't wanna die
I wanna bring my captain hook into the light

[Pre-Chorus]
People I've seen my day
Ranting and raving this beauty away
We are by and large the same
But words are too feeble, they cannot contain

[Chorus]
He was a rock and roll messiah
She was known for her childcare
The truth is gonna give up the world
If you can give up the stage, the stage
The stage, come on!

[Verse]
I wanna feel, I wanna try
I wanna rock in the city tonight
I wanna deal, don't wanna die
I wanna bring my captain hook into the light, la la

[Pre-Chorus]
People I've seen my day
Ranting and raving this beauty away
We are by and large the same
But words are too feeble, they cannot contain
[Chorus]
He was a rock and roll messiah
She was known for her childcare
The truth is gonna give up the world
If you can give up the stage
If I can give up the stage
If we can give up the stage

[Bridge 1]
Come to this
Well I can't come to you
Don't do this
Wake me up tonight
Come to this
Well I can't come to you
Don't do this
Wake me up tonight
Tonight, tonight, come on, motherfucker!
Woo! Yeah!

[Bridge 2]
Yeah, he was a rock and roll messiah
How could she stand to lay beside her
Messiah? Beside her

[Outro]
Nah-nah-nah-nah nah-nah-nah-nah no!
Nah-nah-nah-nah nah-nah-nah-nah yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Gimme the stage! Gimme the stage!
This I've earned! This I've earned!
This I've had!
