Intro:
2x: em* G D
em* G D
This is the ballad of Hollywood Jack and the Rage Cage
em* G D
Nothing could stop them when Jables and Rage hit the stage
em* G D
And Hollywood Jack hit the big time and when to make movies
em* G D
Rage Kage was left far behind in the dust of his dreams
em* D G C B7
And he grumbled and growled and watched Hollywood Jack on Jay Leno
em* D G C B7
He bellowed and said he'd be nothing without help from Kage
em* D G C B7
He burned up the photos of Jables and Kage doing mushrooms
em* D G C B7
"Fuck him, I don't need no Hollywood jack anyway"
em* G D
So Hollywood Jack lived up high on a hill in a bubble
em* G D
And Rage Kage lived deep in the broiling valley below
em* G
Yes, the rage Kage bubbled with rage
D
He looked at the ground
B7
And he looked on the stage
em*
The lava was throwing
G D B7
And boiling inside the old Kage
em* D G C B7
As Hollywood Jack climbed the ladder of stardom before him
em* D G C B7
He watched as his indie credentials flew right out the door
em* D G C B7
He'd make millions and then he'd go out and he'd make even more millions
em* D G C B7
He'd screen KG's calls and snort coke of the ass of a whore
em*
No one respected him
C
They just rejected him
G D
No one would represent Kage
em* C
Left on the streets of his dreams
G B7
he would cry, and he'd rage for the stage
Ahahaaa
Epic flute solo:
4x: em* C D
B7
em* G D
Then Hollywood Jack got a message that Kage was in trouble
em* G D
They sent Kage away cause he had gone completely insane
em* G D
So Hollywood Jack jumped upon a jetplane and flew all that night through the rain
em* G D
To be with his friend to see what remained of his brain
em* D G C B7
Then Hollywood Jack told the doctors: "You got to retrieve him!"
em* D G C B7
You've got the technology, use the techniques of your trade
em* D G C B7
He grabbed their lapels and he screamed "BY GOD YOU MUST SAVE HIM!"
em* D G C B7
Because Rage Kage and I; can't you see that were one and the same!
Aaaah!
em*
RAGE KAGE!
C
OH RAGE KAGE!
G D
There'd be magic inside that old name
em*
And you know,
C
yes you know
G D
When you're going completely insane
em*
Oh Rage Kage!
C
Oh Rage Kage!
G D
Oh the lion will roar once again
em*
And you know
C
Yes you know
G B7
When you're going completely insane
em* D G C B7
Nothing and no one could harm the old Rage Kage again,
em* D G C B7
Nothing and no one could harm the old Rage Kage again,
em* D G C B7
Nothing and no one could harm the old Rage Kage again,
em* D G C B7
Nothing and no one could harm the old Rage Kage again,
em* D G C B7
Nothing and no one could harm the old Rage Kage again,
em* D G C B7
Hollywood Jack and the Rage Kage were out once again.
