| We had you trained, to be so classical | |
| And you learned to play the guitar at school, | |
| But now we've caught you, you've been playing the fool, | |
| We don't think your musical taste is cool. | |
| Too close to rock and roll, | |
| I paid for the teacher so I own your soul. | |
| Move out of the house, you can't use the car, | |
| You spend your lectures just drinking in the college bar, | |
| You don't wanna get a job, you won't get far | |
| Pretty soon you're gonna come home gonna need your Ma and Pa | |
| Too close to rock and roll, | |
| I paid for the teacher so I own your soul. | |
| Too close to | |
| Too close to | |
| Too close to | |
| Rock and roll |
