I`m done with standing in line
To clubs we`ll never get in
It`s like the seat of the ninth
And I`m never gonna win
This life hasn`t turned out
Quite the way I need it to be

(Tell me what you want)

I need a brand new house
On an installment of Cribs
And a bathroom I can play baseball in
And a king size tub big enough
For ten plus me

(So what you need?)

I`ll take a credit card that`s got no limit
And a big black jet with a chamber in it
Gonna join the mile high club
At thirty-seven thousand feet

(Been there, done that)

I require a new tour bus full of old guitars
My own star on Hollywood Boulevard
Somewhere between Cher and
James Dean is okay for me

(So how you gonna do it?)

I`m gonna trade this lifetime for luck and fame
I`d even cut my hair and alter my name

[Chorus:]
`Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
And dwell in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come loose and the drugs come cheap
We`ll all stay skinny `cause we simply won`t eat
And we`ll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the film stars
Every good gold digger`s
Gonna lift up there
Every Playboy bunny
With her bleach blond hair

Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels
Hire eight body guards that know to get up assholes
Sign a couple autographs
So I can eat my meals for free
(I`ll bear the quesadilla on the house)
I`m gonna dress my ass
With the latest fashion
Get a front door key to the Playboy mansion
Gonna date a centerfold that loves to
Blow my money for me
(So how you gonna do it?)
I`m gonna trade this lifetime for luck and fame
I`d even cut my hair and alter my name

[Chorus]

And we`ll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary and 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 hurt the censors
Gonna pop my pills from a pez dispenser

I`ll get washed-up singers writing all my songs
lip sync `em every night so I don`t get `em wrong

[Chorus]

And we`ll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary and today`s who`s who
They`ll get you anything with that evil smile
Everybody`s got a drug dealer on speed dial

Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
