You're never going to be what you want to be Everybody including me, will abandon you for the rest of your life Your life is so delicate and fragile And everyone around you will slowly betray your trust And carry you like you're just some piece of meat Because that's what you are That's what you always have been You're nothing to nobody You can't be a star Who do you think you are No, no you're wrong Please lord Let me be the biggest star the world has ever known Let me be perfect I don't wanna be a mess I don't wanna end up like momma I have to be a star Oh I tried to be what perfect is to me And I never tried to be anybody else All I wanna be was someone I can't be like anybody else No one wants to be like me Because they all think I'm crazy All I ever wanted was to be a star All I ever wanted was to be a star All I ever wanted was to be a star (I just wanna be a star, I just wanna be a star) You're not gonna leave me here I'm not staying on this farm Nothing's gonna keep me here Not you, not Howard, not mamma, nobody Please, I'm a star I hate you Please I'm a star Nothing's gonna keep me here Not you, not Howard, not mamma, nobody
