Leader of the Gang

When thumping beats were all the rage

You'd be stomping across the stage

Now you're wiped off from the page

It wasn't in the plan

Leader of the gang

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Now the suits are torn and frayed

And the songs are seldom played

Though they still sound just as great

Leader of the gang

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Rock 'n' roll guitar, frantic strumming

Pounding of the beat, manic drumming

Knock you off your feet, place was jumping

When you were the leader of the gang

Yeah, yeah

These days it doesn't seem so fun

Thanks to the awful things you done

So, what is life like on the run?

Oh, the depths you sank

Leader of the gang

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Rock 'n' roll guitar, frantic strumming

Pounding of the beat, manic drumming

Knock you off your feet, place was jumping

When you were the leader of the gang

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Now the glory days are passed

And the legend, an outcast

Hear the steel door slamming hard

It's goodbye to the glam

Now there is no band

For the leader of the gang

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

It wasn't in the plan

And there is no band

It's goodbye to the glam

Goodbye to the glam

Leader of the gang
