So your girlfriend
Slammed the door shut
In your face tonight
But that's alright
Then she took off
To the opera
With some highbrow
From the city lights
Well, you grew up on a corner
You never missed a moonlit night

Some things never change
They stay the way they are

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha (ha, ha, ha)
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha (ha, ha, ha)

You were born to rock
You'll never be an opera star
You were born to rock
You'll never be an opera star

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha (ha, ha, ha)
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha (ha, ha, ha)

So you stay out all night
Gettin' fucked up
In that rock and roll bar
And you never get tired
'Cause your drugs
Are in a little jar

You were born to rock
And you'll never be an opera star
Some things never change
They stay the way they are

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha (ha, ha, ha)
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha (ha, ha, ha)

I was born to rock

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha (ha, ha, ha)
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha (ha, ha, ha)

Well, your girlfriend
Slammed the door shut
In your face tonight
But that's alright
Then she took off
To the opera
With some highbrow
From the city lights
Well, you grew up on a corner
You never missed a moonlit night

Some things never change
They stay the way they are

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha (ha, ha)
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha (ha, ha, ha)

You were born to rock
You'll never be an opera star
You were born to rock
You'll never be an opera star

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha (ha, ha, ha)
