So, you want to be a Rock 'n Roll star Well, listen now to what I say Get yourself an electric guitar And take some time and learn how to play
And when you hair's combed right And your pants are tight It's gonna be all right
With this time that you go downtown To the agent man, he won't let you down Sell your soul to the company They're all waiting there to sell plastic wares
And in a week or two If you break the charts The girls will tear you apart
What you pay for all these riches and fame Well, it's all a vicious game, you're a little insane What you get is the public acclaim Don't forget who you are, you're a Rock 'n Roll star
Hey you, come here, get up Ah, this is the era where everybody creates Recognize my face? They call me, 'Broken Glass' That's because of his sound that I got Incomprehensible
What you pay for all these riches and fame Well, it's all a vicious game, you're a little insane Well, you're a little insane oh, a little insane 'Cause the thing that you gain is the public acclaim
Don't forget who you are, don't forget who you are Don't forget who you are, you're a Rock 'n Roll star
