Rock'nroll Whore

Let me tell you a story

About how this all came to be

How I came to be the thorn on the Rock'nRoll family tree

Every line you fed me

Well, the story just don't fit

'Cause you're just looking for a sucker

And it don't amount to shit

You're all looking for the same individuality

You all want to be different

Like you, and just like me

I sold a million records, and I'm still fucking poor

But you keep on thinking that I'm just another Rock'nRoll Whore

I played a lot of gigs

And I always got laid

I sold a shitload of records

But I never got paid

After twenty-something years, wonderin' what's it all for

When the man in the suit comes in

And tells me that I'm great

Then he tries to change me

After taking the bait

After twenty-something years of people slamming the door

It all comes down to being a Rock'nRoll Whore

So now I'm playing to a packed house

But I still can't get a deal

And all the A&R wannabes are sleeping at the wheel

We really wanted to see you play

We're really sorry we missed it

I know you're really not sorry at all

And I know that I'm being blacklisted

And when I think about all the limits I have tested

If I walked the street naked I still couldn't get arrested

To be on some compilation, is all I wrote this song for

So I guess that makes me just another Rock'nRoll Whore

And if the money and the women are all I'm in it for

I guess that means I'm just another Rock'nRoll Whore

Yeah... I guess that means I'm just another Rock'nRoll Whore
