|
So you want to be a rock and roll star?
|
Then listen now to what I say.
|
Just get an electric guitar
|
Then take some time
|
And learn how to play.
|
And with your hair swung right,
|
And your pants too tight
|
It's gonna be all right.
|
Then it's time to go downtown
|
Where the agent man won't let you down.
|
Sell your soul to the company
|
Who are waiting there to sell plastic ware.
|
And in a week or two
|
If you make the charts
|
The girls'll tear you apart.
|
The price you paid for your riches and fame,
|
Was it all a strange game?
|
You're a little insane.
|
The money, the fame, and the public acclaim,
|
Don't forget who you are,
|
You're a rock and roll star
|
