Lucinda Williams - Little Rock Star lyrics

It's clear you have a d**hwish From what I hear Your latest dish, lives for you It scares you half to d**h You bend over backwards to make a statement Hang from the rafters and lick the pavement Split your lip and barely cathc a breath Your lovely eyes that close like petals Your sweet surprise can win you medals You strut your stuff and fan your peaco*k feathers Even if you fake it to get attention Whatever it'll take to get them to listen Piss on your designer boots and designer leathers [Chorus] Hey little rock star (hey little rock star) Why don't you see This is not all that, its cracked up to be And I can't say I blame you For throwin' the towel in For buying more fame Cashing your chips in With all your talent So much to gain To toss it away like this It'd be such a shame Juvenile delinquent, misunderstood Peter Pan and Robin Hood Will you ever do what your afraid to do? Will you ever know happiness of a rock star? Was your d**hwish stronger than you are? Will you go up in flames like the torches that are carried for you? [Chorus] To toss it away like this Would be such a shame To toss it away like this Would be such a shame
