Rock n Roll Never Looked So Beautiful Lyrics

Sometimes you go to sleep in your makeup
Sometimes you take off your pants when you wake up
Sometimes you walk a bridge in your girl shoes
Its ok if you're late cos they will always love you.

Sometimes I dream so big
My life just seems so boring
Rock 'n' roll never looked so beautiful
Rock 'n' roll never looked so beautiful.

Sometimes you bleach your head till it burns
Sometimes your friends tag team and take turns
Sometimes you walk a bridge at midnight
Cos when you're broke walking ain't just for the transit strike.

Sometimes I dream so big
My life just seems so boring
Rock 'n' roll never looked so beautiful
Rock 'n' roll never looked so beautiful.

Sometimes I cry cos it makes my eyes look bluer
Sometimes I bleed cos red is a good colour for me.

Put me in a see-through coffin
And stuff me up with mink stole stuffin
Put me in a crystal casket
Before they mix diamonds into my ashes.


Dance around my body
Just cos I'm dead don't kill the party
Rock 'n' roll never looked so beautiful
Rock 'n' roll never looked so beautiful.

Semi Precious Weapons is a rock band from New York City consisting of Justin Tranter on vocals, Stevy Pyne on guitar, Cole Whittle on bass and Dan Crean on drums. Pyne replaced former guitarist, Aaron Lee Tasjan, in November 2008. The band play their own "Filthy Glamour" brand of rock music and espouse a "Dirty Showbiz" philosophy.

In 2006, Semi Precious Weapons (SPW) was formed by Berklee College of Music graduates Tranter, Whittle, Crean and Tasjan. In 2007 erstwhile manager BP Fallon brought in Tony Visconti to produce their first album, We Love You. Funded by Tranter's jewelry sales, they originally released the album as a free download.

At the same time they began recording a new album titled You Love You, which released on June 29, 2010.

In January 2008 they caused a stir in the United Kingdom after Kate Moss attended their concert at London's Death Disco club and danced with 'six foot bisexual' singer Justin Tranter. Vogue described the band as "unashamedly crass and deliciously animated". On March 18, 2010, the band's eponymous song "Semi Precious Weapons" achieved their first number one - on New Zealand radio station The Edge.

Justin Tranter has a jewelry line called "Fetty" that sells at Barneys New York. The designs include weapons, hearts, and diamond braille.
