So you wanna be a rock and roll star

The glamour, the glitter, your name lights the sky

Ride around in a big limo car

With all the ladies you want and every high you can try

Every high you can try, you can try, you can try, you can try

So you think you'll find fortune and fame

Upon the stage with crowds to command

So you think they'll remember your name

Becuase Rolling Stone says you're a hell of a band

You're a hell of a band, you're a hell of a band

So you've never stayed at a worthless hotel

Or gotten the shaft from a groupie who tells

Or listened to turkeys spewing their lies

Or been ripped by an agent and hung out to dry, bye bye

So you think you'll be home at the top

All the girls will scream at the bulge in your jeans

So you think that the fun never stops

You're living the life, you're into the scene

So you've never been tired night after night

Heard the same old songs night after night

Or hassled by cops who think you're a shit

Driven mile after mile to play in a pit

Or written a song that never gets played

Or chased by weirdos who want to get laid

Go take your chances, shoot for the stars

Smash out your music in sewers called bars, you star!
