They Called It Rock lyrics
They went and cut the record, the record hit the charts
Someone in the newspaper said that it was art
The disco casanova had it heavy on the breath
The local teeny-bopper band was playing it to death
They called it rock
The telephones are ringing, the boys are getting hot
They're jettin' out to Rio and some other sunny spots
Some senorita says the singer sounds terrific
The personal appearances are stopping the traffic
They called it rock
Hey long distance, it's a rock and roll romance
CBS is gonna pay a great big advance
Hey Atlantic, come on take a chance
Arista say they love it but the kids can't dance to it
They cut another record, it never was a hit
Someone in the newspaper said it was shit
The drummer is a bookie, the singer is a whore
The bass player's selling clothes he never would have wore
They called it rock
