Sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll
Is all my brain and body need
Sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll
Is very good indeed

Keep your silly ways or throw them out the window
The wisdom of your ways I've been there and I know
Lots of other ways, what a jolly bad show
If all you ever do is business you don't like

Sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll
Sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll
Sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll
Is very good indeed

Ev'ry bit of clothing ought to make you pretty
You can cut the clothing, grey is such a pity
I should wear the clothing of Mr. Walter Mitty
See my tailor, he's called Simon
I know it's going to fit

Here's a little bit of advice
You're quite welcome, it is free
Don't do nothin' that is cut-price
You know what they'll make you be
They will try their tricky devise 
Trap you with the ordin'ry
Get your teeth into a small slice
The cake of liberty

Sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll
Sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll
Sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll
Sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll - ow! ow!
Sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll - ow! ow! ow! ow!
Sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll ....
