Rock 'N' Roll Mercenaries - John Parr, Meatloaf

(talking, talking — wealth, talking — money, talking — power

Talking — horses, talking — fun, talking — self, talking — power

Talking — diamonds, talking — ego, talking — man, talking — wealth)

(and talking — power) (repeats)

Money is power, power is fame

Talking about rock n roll mercenaries

Soldiers of fortune by some other name

Im talking about rock n roll mercenaries

Money is power, n power is fame

Everything you pay to hear — just listen

Everything to catch your ear — just listen

Whatever it takes, theyre ready to sell

Anything and everything they do it themselves

Young are the victims so easily

Our conscience is a load, so heavy to carry, for a rock n roll mercenary

It starts with a game, see how they play

Till all of the laughter is faded away

Its not for the song, its not for the love

Its just for the gold and theres never enough — never enough

Its not for the song, its not for the love

Its just for the gold, theres never enough

(rock n roll mercenaries)

(talking, talking) (repeats out)

Rock n roll mercenaries — ooh, talkin about

Rock n roll mercenaries… (to fade)
