off the shelf - elliott murphy lyrics

[intro]
one, two!

[verse 1]
the harvard child poet
mister machine stickman
i’ll see you later down at max’s
i call it my band
we’ll see what happens
we’ll see what grows
i say someday we’ll retire to the mexicos

[chorus]
’cause you can’t keep it to yourself
you just can’t play it by yourself
and rock ‘n roll’s off the shelf
off the shelf

[verse 2]
i got my stratocaster
i got my liner notes
i know just who my heroes are
and i can recognize judas goats
cause something happened
when the dollar signs got in his eyes
he gained all of his losses, i was not surprised
[chorus]
‘causе you can’t keep it to yourself
you just can’t play it by yourself
take rock ‘n roll off thе shelf
off the shelf

[bridge]
a decade going down
once again he heard the voices say down**town, down*town
can’t you hear that sound, hear that sound
you owe some dues
to earn those blues

[instrumental break]

[verse 3]
so watch the child*poet
watch the machine stickman
d*ckie sohl is at the mudd club
i call it my band
oh see what happens
it died and then started to grow
he won’t discuss the reasons but you know, and you know

[chorus]
that you can’t keep it to yourself
you just can’t play it by yourself
i will not play it by myself
take rock ‘n roll off the shelf
off the shelf
[outro]
off the shelf (oh oh*oh*oh oh)
take it off the shelf (oh oh*oh*oh oh)
just take it off the shelf (oh oh*oh*oh oh)
take it off the shelf (oh oh*oh*oh oh)
just take it off the shelf (oh oh*oh*oh oh)
two three four
five
