I heard the stories 'bout the one in the hills,
I read the papers where they thought it was pills,
I've seen the future and the future isn't what I believed...
I've seen the one that had the money to burn,
I've seen him waitin' for his line and his turn
And it's all too plain and simple and real.
The rock's steady we know,
The rock's steady, it's always exciting...
The rock's steady we know
The rock's steady but the players come and they go...
They come and they go.
I've heard the stories 'bout the one at the beach,
And all his millions that are still out of reach,
And now I hear he wants a medal just to get out of bed
We get abandoned by the people we cheer,
I had a hero but he's no longer here
And it's all too painful and simple and real...
The rock's steady we know,
The rock's steady, it's always exciting...
The rock's steady we know,
The rock's steady but the players come and they go...
They come and they go.
But did you ever wanna be anything else...?
Did you ever wanna consider an alternative...?
Nothin' ever mattered but the singin' and dancin'...
