Text

I'm through with Gstanding in line to clubs we'll never get in

It's like the Cbottom of the ninth and I'm never gonna win

This Flife hasn't turned out quite the way I want it to Gbe

(tell me what you want)

I want a Gbrand new house on an episode of Cribs

And a Cbathroom I can play baseball in

And a Fking size tub big enough for ten plus Gme

(eh, so what do you need)

I'll need a Gcredit card that's got no limit

And aC big black jet with a bedroom in it

Gonna Fjoin the mile high club at thirty-seven thousand Gfeet

(man, done)

I want a Gnew tour bus full of old guitars

My own Cstar on Hollywood Boulevard

SomeFwhere between Cher and James Dean is fine for Gme

(so how you gonna do it)

I'm gonna A#trade this life for fortune and fame

I'd even Ccut my hair and change my name

'Cause we Gall just wanna be big rockstars

And live in A#hilltop houses driving fifteen cars

The Cgirls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll Gall stay skinny 'cause we Fjust won't eat

And we'll Ghang out in the coolest bars

In the A#VIP with the movie stars

Every Cgood gold digger's gonna wind up there

Every GPlayboy bunny With her Fbleach blond hair

A#Hey Chey I wanna be a rockGstar

I wanna be Ggreat like Elvis without the tassels

Hire Ceight body guards that love to beat up assholes

Sign a Fcouple autographs so I can eat my meals for Gfree

I'm gonna Gdress my ass with the latest fashion

Get a Cfront door key to the Playboy mansion

Gonna Fdate a centerfold that loves to blow my money for Gme

(so how you gonna do it)

I'm gonna A#trade this life for fortune and fame

I'd even Ccut my hair and change my name

'Cause we Gall just wanna be big rockstars

And live in A#hilltop houses driving fifteen cars

The Cgirls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll Gall stay skinny 'cause we Fjust won't eat

And we'll Ghang out in the coolest bars

In the A#VIP with the movie stars

Every Cgood gold digger's gonna wind up there

Every GPlayboy bunny With her Fbleach blond hair

And we'll Ghide out in the private rooms

With the A#latest dictionary and today's who's who

They'll Cget you anything with that evil smile

EveryGbody's got a drug dealer Fon speed dial

A#Hey Chey I wanna be a rockGstar

I'm gonna Gsing those songs that offend the censors

Gonna A#pop my pills from a pez dispenser

Get Cwashed-up singers writing all my songs

Lip Gsync em every night so I don't Fget 'em wrong

'Cause we Gall just wanna be big rockstars

And live in A#hilltop houses driving fifteen cars

The Cgirls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll Gall stay skinny 'cause we Fjust won't eat

And we'll Ghang out in the coolest bars

In the A#VIP with the movie stars

Every Cgood gold digger's gonna wind up there

Every GPlayboy bunny With her Fbleach blond hair

And we'll Ghide out in the private rooms

With the A#latest dictionary and today's who's who

They'll Cget you anything with that evil smile

EveryGbody's got a drug dealer Fon speed dial

A#Hey Chey I wanna be a rockGstar
