Ray Manzarek’s The Whole Thing Started With Rock & Roll (now it’s out of control)
I didn’t check; I’m just being silly.
Nothing wrong with a little sarcasm in music now and then. That’s a GREAT song and maybe the only anti rock song listed so far.
Rock is dead, you say?Long Live Rock!
Other choices:
Long Live Rock And Roll
Rock And Roll Outlaw
Let Me Go, Rock And Roll
Rock And Roll All Night
Heavy Metal Rock ‘n’ Roll by Rock Goddess
Fairly obscure one:
Old Time Rock & Roll–Bob Segeer
Best: David Bowie, Rock n Roll Suicide
Worth mentioning: Patti Smith, Rock n Roll N****r

Another one by Neil Young
…and Huey Lewis
Here’s an awesome song:I Can’t Stand Rock & Roll
The dopiest one is The Heart of Rock & Roll. Just painful, and the video makes it even worse.
This version is the best.
I liked Jeff Beck’s “Rock My Plimsoul” from Truth.
The Original version ‘I love Rock and roll’
