It's time to salute all the pioneers
For keeping me sane after all these years
And making sense to those who don't fit
Society's standards or a corporate fix

I send this to everyone who got it wrong
Go find another palette for your menial songs
I've joined the club of the prominent trash
I'm in it for life however long that lasts

L'Andrew, T. Rex and Hanoi Rocks
Dead Boys, Ziggy and the Spiders from Mars
Alice Cooper and the Rolling Stones
Dogs D'Amour, Stooges and the NY Dolls
It's way past fashion it's a state of mind
Look at the bozos lost in a mime
Never quite got the important part
Sincerity springs from a cynical heart

You're lost in a mime, image is contrived
You'll never really know the truth
You'll never feel the way we do

Nature's blend of philosophy
It escalates androgyny
Gender bent the line is smeared
Turn around I'm your worst fear

Peace inside a glimmering shell
Images shine and images sell
Magic rising from a colorful box
Sometimes it seems like music is all I've got
