Brighton Rock Lyrics
It’s eleven O’clock
And this town’s stone dead
The streets are deserted
Everyone’s tucked up in their bed
There’s just one place I know
Where no one ever sleeps
It rocks all day and night
It’s non-stop 8 days a week
Knock, knock, knock, yeah
Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks
All around the clock
Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks
I’m going round the clock
With this Brighton rock
Some may call it ‘Kooks-Town’
It’s down by the sea
Don’t matter what you like
It’s the only place I feel free
Gonna get my rocks off
And lay down on the beach
You can do what you want
Eat some melons or a peach
Knock, knock, knock
Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks
All around the clock
Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks,
All around the clock
With this Brighton rock
It’s not so far away
You should go on down too
Say you only live once
Everyone should try pastures new
I don’t wanna turn you
From the straight and narrow
There you’ll rub shoulders with
Boyz and girls from Eton and Harrow
Knock, knock, knock. yeah
Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks
All around the clock
Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks
I’m going round the clock
With this Brighton rock
Don’t care if you’re black or white
Or dress to the left or to the right
No one cares where you’re from or where you been
You could be from Mars and coloured green
Down there Brighton rocks
It’s the coolest funkiest scene
Knock, knock, knock
Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks
All around the clock
Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks
I’m going round the clock
With this Brighton rock
Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks
Brighton rocks
Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks, Brighton rocks
Brighton rocks

This song displays the Love and character of ones town! It is a fun song that I’m sure locals will be chanting or singing along to!

Like the intro of this track. It grabs your attention within 30 seconds. That is as long as a listener will give you to grab their attention.
Paul Robert Thomas
Thanks so much Janice:)!

Brighton Rock certainly stands out Paulies. I really like it… otherwise I wouldn’t have bothered to say so! Good luck with the album… get the covers off! Philip
Paul Robert Thomas
