Rock And Roll Heaven's Gate - Indigo Girls

It didn't happen for you,

no one wants to hear the truth,

coming from three political queers.

Plucking the punk rock bloom.

So you break up the band

and leave us all in tow.

Now we gotta figure out

where to go.

I caught it at a rave

Did it give you vaccination?

I saw it on my T.V.

Did it lighten up your load?

And every f**kin D.J.

Did you feel affilliated,

Is telling me I'm free.

like you really had a home?

Free to be a loser

Were the ticket prices too high?

Free to be a trend

Were the lights too bright?

Free to be a backlash over and over again.

Was it all a bunch of hype?

You say, "I'm losing inspiration,

one band at a time.

I gotta know there's someone, somewhere, out there singing for our side."

Where I come up, we share the mortar and the glue.

And what we build together, we share that too.

And the wind may come, and the rain may fall,

but we stand together or we don't stand at all.

Where are you going to now,

now that the goings gone?

So here's to your survival

and swimming up the stream,

crossing over one dam after another

until we get to Rock and Roll Heaven's gate.

I caught it at a rave

Did it give you vaccination?

I saw it on the T.V.

Did it lighten up your load?

And every f**king D.J.

Did you feel affiliated,

Is telling me I'm free.

Like you really had a home?

Free to be a loser

Were the ticket prices too high?

Free to be a trend

Were the lights too bright?

Free to be a backlash over and over

until I get to Rock and Roll Heaven's gate.
