SOLVED: Rock is almost dead

Hi all,

I'm looking for the artist and the title of a rock song. I recorded it in the late 70's or early 80's from a German TV show. Lyrics are written down below. I was not able to clearly recognize all parts of the lyrics (lines "..."). A 30 second snapshot of the song can be found here: http://www.watzatsong.com/en/name-that-tune/52135.html

Thanks for any help.

----------------- verse 1 -------------------
[man]
Please don't tell me rock is almost dead,
listen to the music in my head,

[woman]
try to find a better rhyme,

[man]
but I think you lose your time,

[choir]
please don't tell me rock is almost dead.

----------------- verse 2 -------------------
[man]
How can you say rock is at the end,
listen to the music, hear the band,

[woman]
do you hear the harmonies,

[man]
written, and the melodies,

[choir]
how can you say rock is at the end.

----------------- verse 3 -------------------
[man]
Why should I believe that rock is down,
and that disco took over its crown,

[woman]
...,

[man]
...,

[choir]
why should I believe that rock is down.

------------------ chorus -------------------
[choir]
Take us for an example,
listen to us now,
we are rock musicians,
...,
...,
yes, we're playing loud,
rock is our profession,
no, we have no doubt.

Then verse 1, chorus, verse 3, chorus are repeated, followed by:

------------------ the end ------------------
[choir]
listen now,
listen now,
listen now,
listen now.

[choir]
Take us for an example,
listen to us now,
we are rock musicians,


(WE'LL MAKE IT SOME HOW)
(WE ARE Oppositions)


yes, we're playing loud,
rock is our profession,
no, we have no doubt.

Thanks for completing the lyrics. I agree with "we'll make it somehow". But not with the line that follows. Maybe you confused it with the line before.

Longer version for those that may need it: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9384401/rock.mp3

I thought line after "We'll make it somehow" was "Feel our imperceptions"

I hear 'We are oppositions' too, but instead of 'We are rock musicians'

Maybe, but I'm less interested in having the complete and correct lyrics but in the artist and song title. Any ideas?

Unfortunately, I do not remember the name of the show.
