Stairway to Cleveland (We do hat we want) [as sung] Lyrics

whatcha gonna do about Cleveland? 

whatcha gonna do about rock & roll? 

whatcha gonna do about crazy crazy? 

whatcha gonna do about it? 

hey we gotta a new band - a new face - a new time! 

sing a song of rock & roll & drive us all crazy 

people tell me everything I need to know about 

rock & roll 

politics n' all about our new band 

but some people never happy "don't like it" - "didn't see it" oh oh 

they had to make a comment! 

your new drummer's crazy, your manager's an asshole! get a new shirt? 

I can't stand your guitar player! 

rolling stone, village voice, picky picky picky! 

said we can't sing, can't play, can't write anyway! 

new name - old name - carry on, with such insane fuckers everywhere, 

whatcha gonna do about it? 

whatcha gonna do about crazy crazy? 

whatcha gonna do about romance? 

whatcha gonna do about tense moments? 

so I gotta new girl blonde girl big mouth big heart y'know i like her, 

but they say she's too noisy, atomic girl! ... atomic girl! 

New York - L.A. times rock & roll magazines, said we couldn't make it 

but here we go again on rock and roll radio, rock and roll radio, 

people tell me everything I need to hear about what we need, what we 

got, what we're never gonna get 

old singers gone away - whatcha gonna do about it? gold records rock & 

roll n' why dontcha sound like you used to in '65? '69? '75? 

everybody stand up, they got to make a comment, critics said they'll 

never make it, never make it, never never never never never never never 

never never! 

fuck you! we do what we want! 

chaos comin', keep strummin', louder & louder & louder & louder, 

whatcha gonna do about it? whatcha gonna do about crazy crazy? whatcha 

gonna do about it? whatcha gonna do about dark ages? whatcha gonna do 

about nite time? whatcha gonna do about Walter Cronkite? whatcha gonna 

do about romance? whatcha gonna do about the economic price index? 

whatcha gonna do about llluuuuuv? whatcha gonna do about tense moments? 

whatcha gonna do about crazy crazy crazy crazy? 

whatcha gonna do about it? (7 times) 

War & toxic chemicals and mister Rogers n' true love n' the end of 

civilization n' muzak n' the ptl club n' Ronald Reagan n' guns n' the 

draft, b52's n' nuclear fission dc-10's n' cancer science fiction brain 

control drugs n' sex n' buddha n' 714s 45s eight billion people jesus 

krishna n' everybody n' rock and roll surrealism - everything 

everything everything everything! 

fuck you! we do what we want!
