Brian May Lyrics[Verse 1]
I was three when my parents made me learn to look up to the sky
The constellations were my concentration and everything fascinated me
One day I said “dad what was bound to happen if I fell past event horizon?”
He said “I don’t know kid why don’t you go ask DeGrasse Tyson”
I said he’s cool but you know who rules, my father just looked confused
If I’m gonna learn about the lack of light I’m gonna do it right
[Chorus]
I wanna learn how to rock n roll from a man with a PhD
I wanna learn about the larger cosmos from a man that can serenade me
When you’re out of luck and your astronomy sucks, keep your head up son and dial nil-2-none
Showing no signs of dismay, I’m gonna call Brian May
[Verse 2]
I was 18 on the acting scene, and my parents didn’t understand
I don’t want to read a book by Sagan, I wanna hear that guitar start playin
Big hair and a 70’s groove, pick up the phone you know what to do
[Chorus]
I wanna learn how to rock n roll from a man with a PhD
I wanna learn about the larger cosmos from a man that can serenade me
When you’re out of luck and your astronomy sucks, keep your head up son and dial nil-2-none
Showing no signs of dismay, I’m gonna call Brian May
[Verse 3]
Big hair and a 70’s groove
Pick up the phone, you know what to do
When you’re out of luck and your astronomy sucks
Pick your head up son and dial nil-2-none
Big hair and an 80’s groove
Pick up the phone you know what to do
All the things you’ll probably never do, pick up the phone you know what to do, cause
[Chorus]
I gotta learn how to rock n roll , from a man with a PhD
If I’m gonna learn about astronomy, the man better serenade me
The only way to learn about the lack of light is the one way to do it right
Showing no, signs of dismay, I’m gonna call
Showing no signs of dismay, I’m gonna call Brian May
