Lyrics

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 fit 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 plasticware And in a week or two, if you make the charts The girls'll tear you apart Price you paid for your riches and fame Was it all a strange game? You're a little insane The money that came and the public acclaim Don't forget what you are You're a rock 'n' roll star La, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la
