So You Want To Be Lyrics

So You Want To Be lyrics

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 your hair's combed right

And your pants are tight, it's gonna be all right



With time 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 make the charts

The girls will tear you apart



What you pay for 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



Na, na na, na na na, na na

Na na, na na, na na na



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 the sounds [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
