Everything you say should be righteous
That’s my advice to you
Every single thought – well, maybe not every one
But it’s not complicated, it goes like this:
Deep Purple Mark II, they were righteous
Led Zeppelin stole their blues, not righteous
The Soft Machine with Robert Wyatt, they were righteous
The Soft Machine, post-Wyatt, they’re still righteous
I could go on, I could go further
Give a few more clues, so you get the picture
Use your 21st century imagination
Fill in the gaps, here’re some examples
The Stones without Brian Jones were not righteous
Even though he was probably evil
The ducks in the park and our public art
Is on the front to all creatures and people
It’s all up here and it’s all down there
Please don’t get the old band back together
Oh yeah, we’re all up here, and we’re keeping an eye
On what goes on at the bottom of the garden
Cause we’re just Rock N Roll animals in space, man
We’re Rock N Roll animals in space
We live and we die, we love and we hate
Cause we’re the Rock N Roll animals in space
We’re the Rock N Roll animals in space, man
The Rock N Roll animals in space (we’re in space)
We live and we die, we love and we hate
Cause we’re the Rock N Roll animals in space (we’re in space)
Yeah, we’re the Rock N Roll animals in space (Rock N Roll)
We’re the Rock N Roll animals, the Rock N Roll animals, the Rock N Roll animals in space
In space
We’re in space
It’s just space
We’re in space
