So you want to be a rock 'n' 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, the public acclaim
|
Don't forget what you are
|
You're a rock 'n' roll star!
