mott the hoople - ballad of mott lyrics
i changed my name in search of fame
to find the midas touch
oh i wish i’d never wanted then
what i want now twice as much
we crossed the mighty oceans
and we had a few divides
but we never crossed emotion
for we felt too much inside
you know all the tales we tell
you know the band so well
still i feel, somehow, we let you down
we went off somewhere on the way
and now i see we have to pay
the rock’n’roll circus is in town
buffin lost his child-like dreams
and mick lost his guitar
and verden grew a line or two
and overend’s just a rock’n’roll star
behind these shades the visions fade
as i learn a thing or two
oh but if i had my time again
you all know just what i’d do
rock’n’roll’s a loser’s game
it mesmerises and i can’t explain
the reasons for the sights and for the sounds
we went off somewhere on the way
and now i see we have to pay
the rock’n’roll circus is in town
so rock’n’roll’s a loser’s game
it mesmerises and i can’t explain
the reasons for the sights and for the sounds
the greasepaint still sticks to my face
so what the h-ll, i can’t erase
the rock’n’roll feeling from my mind
from my mind… from my mind… from my mind
from my miiiiiind… from my miiiiind… from my miiiiiiiiind
from my miiiiiiiiiiiind
