This or that Rush lyric

WHAT ARE WE DOING????

 

Here's set of lyrics 1:

 

I've got a livin' that's rough, a future that's tough

You know what I mean

Blankers and boasters, all the bluffers and posers

I'm not into that scene

 

You can tell me that I got no class

Look around, you'll see who's laughin' last

Don't give me speeches 'cause they're oh so droll

Leave me alone, let me rock and roll

 

Got an itchin' to rock, a hate for small talk

I'm funny that way

Got my sights on the stars, won't get that far

But I'll try anyway

I just like to please, don't like to tease

I'm easy like that

Don't like long rests, I must confess

I'm an impatient cat

 

I do the best that I can

I'm just what I am

I do the best I can

Well, I know what I am

 

Rock and roll-in's a scream, makin' millions my dream

Well, I do that a lot

I'll just give it a try, won't let good times pass me by

They're all I've got

 

Now, here's number two:

 

The window's dirty, the mattress stinks

This ain't no place to be a man

I ain't got no future, I ain't got no past

And I don't think I ever can

 

The floor is filthy, the walls are thin

The wind is howling in my face

The rats are peeling, I'm losing ground

Can't seem to join the human race

 

Yeah!

I'm living in a hell hole

Don't want to stay in this hell hole

Don't want to die in this hell hole

Girl get me out of this hell hole

 

I rode the jet stream, I hit the top

I'm eating steak and lobster tails

The sauna's drafty - oooh, the pool's too hot

The kitchen stinks of boiling snails

 

The taxman's coming, the butler quit

This ain't no way to be a man

I'm going back to where I started

I'm flashing back into my pan

 

When it's difficult to distinguish between Rush and Spinal Tap, it's time for a change.

I didn't realize just how bad those lyrics were until I read them. Geddy's an intelligent guy, what was he thinking? Did he just get that much smarter with age?

My t, h, and e keys were broken so I couldn't type THE full name of the song

That one has picked up a lot of momentum lately, and it's one that could actually happen. I think it's pretty good.

You should publish your list, and beat Deckiller to the punch.

 

Caravan is my favorite musically, but not lyrically IMO so
