Get your action out
Right here and right now
Everyone's got a forked tongue
So listen to the man with the golden one
Everyone, everywhere
Get on your feet
Sisters listen to me
Now is the time we gotta break free
These walls of sound can fill your lungs
Break fee (from) the womb that binds you up
Feet sewn to floor hear the snake skin hiss
Levitate with us the electric kiss

Ridin' down the highway goin' to a show
Stop at all the byways playin' rock 'n' roll
Gettin' robbed, gettin' stoned
Gettin' beat up, broken boned
Gettin' had, gettin' took
I tell ya, folks, it's harder than it looks
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
If ya think it's easy doin' one night stands
Try playin' in a rock 'n' roll band
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
Hotel, motel, make ya wanna cry
Ladies do the hard sell, know the reason why
Gettin' old, gettin' gray
Gettin' ripped off, underpaid
Gettin' sold second hand
That's how it goes playin' in a band
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
If ya wanna be a star of stage and screen
Look out, it's rough and mean
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
Well it's a long way
Yeah, it's a long way
It's a long way
Yeah, it's just a long way

We Have A Rock Band
01:17
|
|||
I'm getting the name of a rock
We have a rock band in our audience here, Ray
Right here, here they are
As, as we say they're playing a gig here and uh
Now, what did you say the name of it?
I think they said Stivs
How do you spell it?
S.T.I.V.S.
I can't read it
It's the Sivs?
No, Stivs, S.T.
Stivs?
Yes
the Stivs?
Yes!
The Stivs are here!
The Stivs!
Now, I told them it was too bad they didn't have their instruments
Because they could play something for us
And they said, "we'll go out to the parking lot and get them!"
But you can't do that, because we may call your name while you're gone!
You don't know, you don't know!

The Stivs

their canvas for chaos.
Featuring members of The Super High-Tech Jet Fighters, Huntingtons, Standard Bearer, and The Michael Skatts Band, this group of close knit friends came together to create their vision of the ultimate rock and roll band.
The Stivs are here.
