(i Never Wanted) To Be A Star Lyrics

I was seventeen, ou were working for 
Matthew and Son, 
(The) Beatles me the Queen, and I wrote 
I`m gonna get me a gun, yeah, yeah 
It was like a dream in the star machine, 
oh, no, izitso, izitso? 
I never wanted to be a star, I never wanted 
to travel far 
I only wanted a little bit of love 
So I could put a little love in my heart 
I never wanted to be la-de-da, go to parties 
`avec le bourgeois` 
I only wanted to sing my song well, 
So I could ring a small bell in your heart 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 
  
I was on the road, sleeping between lorry 
lights, oh no 
Stone-drunk and cold, heading into a bad 
night, yeah, yeah 
Just another bean in the star machine, hi ho, 
here I go, here I go 
  
I never wanted to be a star buy my mum a 
Ferrari car 
I only wanted to run my own race, 
So I could win a small place in your heart 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 
  
Nature found a way, it picked me up off the 
dark side, yeah, yeah 
Showed me another day, it made me sing 
`I think I see the light` 
Not another bean in the star machine, oh no, 
this time I won`t go 
I never wanted to be a star, I never wanted to travel far 
I only wanted a little bit of love 
So I could put a little love in my heart.
