So you you want to be a rock'n roll star Then listen now to what I say Just get an electric guitar And take some time and learn how to play And when your hair's combed right and your pants fit tight It's gonna be all right Then it's time to go down town Where the agent men won't let you down Sell your soul to the company
Who are waiting there to sell plastic ware And in a week or two if you make the charts The girls'll tear you apart 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
