More Kicks (Long Day’s Journey into Night… Life)

Roger Taylor

Part I of "More Kicks (Long Day's Journey into Night... Life)"

[Verse 1]
I was looking for trouble
I wasn't looking for a wife
I wasn't looking for an answer
To the meaning of life

[Verse 2]
I was young and stupid
I didn't feel no pain
I was looking for trouble
I didn't feel no shame
[Verse 2 Tag:]
I was heading for a long day's journey
In the night - light-
I wanted more kicks

[Verse 3]
I was looking for a party
I was looking for fun
I was headed for disaster
I was the son of a gun

[Verse 4]
I was young and stupid
I didn't feel no pain
I was looking for trouble
I didn't feel no shame
[Verse 4 Tag:]
I was heading for a long day's journey
In the nigt -
"life":
I wanted more kids
[Extended Instrumental saxophone to guitar
Back to saxophone]

[Part 2 of "More Kicks (Long Day's Journery into Night... Life)" (see note at end **) begins with an increased tempo. Mostly instrumental, it is punctuated by "ooh, more kicks", as an aimless rock & roll "jam", but more intense solo's]

Ooh yeah!

More kicks

More kicks
(ooh)
More kicks

More kicks

**note: "Part 2" is meant herein to distinguish the song's shift in mood and tempo. Its lyrical intent may be best-served by the free-form lack of lyrics in "Part 2" (or "extended outro")
