I'm through with standing in line
to clubs we'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


I want a brand new house
on an episode of Cribs

And a bathroom I can play baseball in
And a king size tub big enough
for ten plus me


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 thirty-seven thousand feet


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

I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame

I'd even cut my hair and change my name

[CHORUS]

'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll all stay skinny 'cause 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

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 love to beat up $$#holes
Sign a couple autographs
So I can eat my meals for free


I think I'm gonna dress my $$#
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


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 fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll all stay skinny 'cause 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 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

I'm gonna sing those songs
that offend the censors
Gonna pop my pills

from a pez dispenser
When they ask why I drink all day
I'll say because I can

I'll get washed-up singers writing all my songs

Lip sync em every night so I don't get 'em wrong
Then listen to the fans tell me how damn good I am

I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
I'd even cut my hair and change my name


[CHORUS]
