	Story Behind the Song I came up with the bass line and decided to improvise twice on the guitar while recording. The lyrics were improvised on the spot with almost no preparation. "Alright, here we go" is my warm up for singing. I think it's a sweet song about making music. It was fun to make a song about making songs. That was the only subject matter available at the time, I suppose. But the finished product sounds really loose and wobbily, which is how I like it. Lyrics Alright here we go. I feel so lonely. I feel so bad. What am I supposed to do? Ow! Think what I'm gonna do is rock. Listen to everything and try to think about nothing. That's what I call music. The message is the music. The message is the music. I'm so confused. Help me. Oh, yeah, baby, hmmmmm. Now I'm sitting down in my nice upholstered chair and I'm starting to get down to my rock n roll business and for a second things seem okay. Badadadadadadadada. Oh that rock n roll! It's beautiful. We can finally get down, baby. Our business is gonna be done very soon. Don't worry about a thing. We'll rock and we'll roll.
