So You Wanna Be a Rock n Roll Star Lyrics by Patti Smith

So You Wanna Be a Rock n Roll Star Lyrics

    So you want to be a rock & 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 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 & roll star
    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 sound [ ]
    [ ]
    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 & roll star
