- We Want A Rock Lyrics / with translationsWhere was I? I forgot
The point that I was making
I said if I was smart that I would
Save up for a piece of string
and a rock to wind the string around
Everybody wants a rock
To wind a piece of string around
Throw the crib door wide
Let the people crawl inside
Someone in this town
Is trying to burn their playhouse down
They want to stop the ones who want
A rock to wind a string around
But everybody wants a rock
To wind a piece of string around
If I were a carpenter I'd
Hammer on my piglet
I'd collect the seven dollars and I'd
Buy a big prosthetic forehead
And wear it on my real head
Everybody wants prosthetic
Foreheads on their real heads
Throw the crib door wide
Let the foreheads come inside
Someone in this town
Is trying to burn the foreheads down
They want to stop the ones who want
Prosthetic foreheads on their heads
