Book and Lyrics

Dear Mom By Now You're Probably Wondering What Happened to the Van

Dear Mom,

By now you're probably wondering what happened to the van.

I know you will understand if you look deep inside your heart and don't listen to Dennis that I had to take it for the sake of Rock'n'Roll, which is to say for my Life, and my Heart, and I hope you will not call the cops like you said.
Every great band in history has gone on tour, and most of those tours started with a van, possibly even someone's Mom's van, who believed in them and who also could use Dennis's T-Bird when she needs to go to the store.

What I am doing with your van is finally living the Dream of Rock, and taking my band (Hämmer) on the road to rock the entire state of New Jersey and bordering areas in support of how we sent our demo out to like every radio station we could find the address to until we ran out of tapes.

Our first stop is I don't want to tell you exactly because I don't want you to call the cops even though I don't think you will, but it is the home of the greatest rock'n'roll band in history, Silverwolf, where the singer is a guy who has a bar and we are going to play there, and possibly he will even get up on stage with us and do a thing up there that will open the gates of mystery and finally give the Rock inside of me wings to take flight and cover the entire world with a metal rain of rock.

I love you Mom please don't be mad, we'll take real good care of the van and if DuPaul pukes in it again we will totally clean it out this time, and your son will return to you a rock God and you will never want for anything ever again.
Yours truly,

-JJ Rock, your son

PS - Mom the devil sign is not Satanic it's just rock'n'roll so don't worry. We are only Satanic in a good way, not in a bad way, and when I said rock'n'roll was the new Jesus Christ that one time I only meant that it would save us all, even you. Even me. -JJ
