The Kinks - You Can't Stop The Music

And so Norman decides to stop living Out his fantasy of being a rock star and Accept reality. This is the end for Norman but not for us because there Will always be someone ready to take His place - after all, euerybody's a Star! You Can't Stop The Music Let's all raise a glass To the rock stars of the past, Those that made it, Those that faded, Those that never even made the grade, Those that we thought would never last. Singers come and go, And stars fade away. They vanish in the haze And they're never seen again, But the music just keeps playing on. They can't stop the music, They can't stop the music, They can't stop the music playing on. I've been half a million places, I've seen half a million people who stare, I've been a star and down and out, I've been put on, sat on, punched and spat on, They've called me a faggot, a spiv and a fake, They can knock me down and tread on my face, They can't stop the music playing on. Let's all raise a glass To the rock stars of the past, Those that made it, Those that faded, Those that never even made the grade, Those that we thought would never last. Singers come and go, And stars fade away. They vanish in the haze And they're never seen again, But they can't stop the music playing on.
