Rockstar - Live From Red Rocks
I'm through with standing in line to clubs I'll never get in
It's like the bottom of the ninth and I'm never gonna win
This life hasn't turned out quite the way I want it to be
(Tell me what you want)
I want a brand-new house on an episode of Cribs and
A bathroom I can play baseball in
And a kingsize tub big enough for ten plus me
(So what you need?)
I'll need a credit card that's got no limit
And a big black jet with a bedroom in it
Gonna join the mile high club at 37 thousand feet
(Been there, done that)
I want a new tour bus full of old guitars
My own star on Hollywood Boulevard
Somewhere between Cher and James Dean is fine for me
(So how you gonna do it?)
I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
I'd even cut my hair and change my name
'Cause we're all just wanna be big rockstars
And live in hilltop houses driving 15 cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We'll all stay skinny and we just won't eat
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger's gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny with her bleach blond hair, and we'll
Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar
Let me hear you
(Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar)
Oh, yes
I gotta know
Everybody having a good time?
That's what I like to hear
I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels
Hire eight bodyguards that love to beat up assholes
Sign a couple autographs, so I can eat my meals for free
(I'll have the quesadilla, ha, ha)
I'm gonna dress my ass with the latest fashion
Get a front door key to the Playboy Mansion
Gonna date a centerfold, loves to blow my money for me
(So how you gonna do it?)
I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
(I'd even cut my hair and change my name)
'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
And live in hilltop houses driving 15 cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We'll all stay skinny and we just won't eat
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger's gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny with her bleach blond hair, and we'll
Hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary of today's who's who
They'll get you anything with that evil smile
Everybody's got a drug dealer on speed dial, well
Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar
I'm gonna sing those songs that offend the censors
Gonna pop my pills from a Pez dispenser
Get washed-up singers writing all my songs, and
Lip sync 'em every night, so I don't get 'em wrong
Because, we all just wanna be big rockstars
(And live in hilltop houses driving 15 cars)
(The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap)
(We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat)
Yes, hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger's gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny with her bleach blond hair
And we'll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary of today's who's who
They'll get you anything with that evil smile
Everybody's got a drug dealer on speed dial, well
Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar, sing it to me
(Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar)
You guys are all rockstars
Good times
Damn it, I love it when you guys sing
Sounds so good
I feel like they're getting warmed up
It's like the bottom of the ninth and I'm never gonna win
This life hasn't turned out quite the way I want it to be
