Lyrics:

If I could stick my pen in my heart, and spill it all over the stage,
Would it satisfy 'ya, would it slide on by 'ya,
Would 'ya think the boy is strange? Ain't he strange?

If I could win 'ya, if I could sing 'ya a love song so divine,
Would it be enough for your cheating heart,
If I broke down and cried? If I cried?

I said, I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it.
I know it's only rock 'n roll, but I like it, like it, yes, I do.
Well, I like it, I like it, I like it.
I said, can't you see that this old boy has been lonely?

If I could stick a knife in my heart, suicide right on stage,
Would it be enough for your teenage lust?
Would it help to ease the pain? Ease your brain?

If I could dig down deep in my heart, feelings would flood on the page.
Would it satisfy 'ya, would it slide on by 'ya,
Would 'ya think the boy's insane? He's insane?

I said, I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it.
I said, I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it, like it, yes, I do.
Oh, well, I like it, I like it, I like it.
I said, can't you see that this old boy has been lonely?

And do 'ya think that you're the only girl around?
I bet you think that you're the only woman in town.

I said, I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it.
I said, I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it.
I said, I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it, like it, yes, I do.
Well, I like it, I like it, I like it.
I like it, I like it, I like it.
(Only rock 'n roll, but I...) I like it...
(Only rock 'n roll, but I...) I like it...
(Only rock 'n roll, but I...) I like it...
(Only rock 'n roll, but I...) I like it...
