Gordon Lightfoot sang a song about a boat that sank in a lake
At the break of the mornin' a Cat name Stevens found a faith he
could believe in
And Joan Baez. I never listened to too much jazz
But hippie songs could be heard in our pad.
Eddie Rabbit sang about how much he loved a rainy night
Abba, Devo, Benatar were there the day John Lennon died
Mr. Springsteen said he had a hungry heart
Grover Washington was happy on the day he topped the chart
These are the songs

These are my heart songs
They never feel wrong
And when I wake
For goodness' sake
These are the songs I keep singin'

Quiet Riot got me started with the banging of my head
Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, and Slayer taught me how to shred
I gotta admit, though, sometimes I would listen to the radio
Debbie Gibson, tell me that you think we're all alone
Michael Jackson's in the mirror,
I gotta have faith if I wanna see clear
Never going to give you up, wish me love a wishing well
It takes two to make a thing go right
if the Fresh Prince starts a fight
Don't you worry for too long cuz you know these are the songs

These are my heart songs
They never feel wrong
And when I wake
For goodness' sake
These are the songs I keep singin'

Back in 1991 I wasn't havin' any fun
Until my roommate said "C'mon" and put a brand new record on
It had a baby on it, he was naked on it
And then I heard the chords that broke the chains I had upon me.
I got together with my bros in some rehearsal studios
And then we played our first rock show
and watched our fanbase start to grow
We signed a deal to get the dough to make a record of our own
The song come on the radio now people go "this is the song"

These are my heart songs
They never feel wrong
And when I wake
For goodness' sake
These are the songs I keep singin'
