RUBBER ROOM ROCK
last prev edit 8/2/90 (written 1984?)
used to twist and do the jerk
they don’t let me do that no more
now all I do is do the worm
in my straight jacket down on the floor
but I still rock
I still rrock
I do the Rubber Room Rock
Oh yea I rock
I still rock
I do the Rubber Room Rock
Used to slam and bang my head
ten thousand stage dives or more
dove forty feet from a PA tower
and went three feet into the floor
But I still rock
yeah I rock . . .
None of my friends are no fun no more
they just sit in the dayroom and stare at the floor
they come back from the lab with dark rings round their eyes
“therapy’s too expensive–so we lo-bot-o-mize!”
But they still rock
oh yeah we rock
we do the Rubber Room Rock
Oh sure we rock
unh hunh we rock
we do the Rubber Room Rock
