Lyrics:

(ian hunter/overend watts/mick ralphs/verden allen/dale griffin)



I changed my name in search of fame

To find the midas touch

Oh I wish Id never wanted then

What I want now twice as much

We crossed the mighty oceans

And we had a few divides

But we never crossed emotion

For we felt too much inside



You know all the tales we tell

You know the band so well

Still I feel, somehow, we let you down

We went off somewhere on the way

And now I see we have to pay

The rocknroll circus is in town



Buffin lost his child-like dreams

And mick lost his guitar

And verden grew a line or two

And overends just a rocknroll star

Behind these shades the visions fade

As I learn a thing or two

Oh but if I had my time again

You all know just what Id do



Rocknrolls a losers game

It mesmerises and I cant explain

The reasons for the sights and for the sounds

We went off somewhere on the way

And now I see we have to pay

The rocknroll circus is in town



So rocknrolls a losers game

It mesmerises and I cant explain

The reasons for the sights and for the sounds

The greasepaint still sticks to my face

So what the hell, I cant erase

The rocknroll feeling from my mind



From my mind...from my mind...from my mind

From my miiiiiind...from my miiiiind...from my miiiiiiiiind

From my miiiiiiiiiiiind
