So you want to be a rock 'n' roll star?

Well listen now, hear what i say

Just get an electric guitar

Take some time

And learn how to play



And when your hair swung right,

And your pants get tight

It's gonna be alright



Well then it's time to go downtown

To the agent man won't let you down

Sell your soul to some company







Who are waiting there to sell plastic ware

And in a week or two if you make the charts

The girls will tear you apart



It's the price you pay 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
