[00:02.57] So You Want To Be
[00:05.57] Patti Smith Group
[00:08.57]
[00:25.57] So, you want to be a Rock 'n Roll star
[00:28.39] Well, listen now to what I say
[00:33.01] Get yourself an electric guitar
[00:35.68] And take some time and learn how to play
[00:39.18]
[00:40.17] And when you hair's combed right
[00:42.97] And your pants are tight
[00:44.40] It's gonna be all right
[00:46.41]
[00:47.45] With this time that you go downtown
[00:50.19] To the agent man, he won't let you down
[00:54.53] Sell your soul to the company
[00:57.19] They're all waiting there to sell plastic wares
[01:01.14]
[01:02.01] And in a week or two
[01:04.72] If you break the charts
[01:06.48] The girls will tear you apart
[01:08.37]
[01:23.64] What you pay for all these riches and fame
[01:26.35] Well, it's all a vicious game, you're a little insane
[01:30.83] What you get is the public acclaim
[01:33.65] Don't forget who you are, you're a Rock 'n Roll star
[01:37.33]
[02:29.50] Hey you, come here, get up
[02:34.40] Ah, this is the era where everybody creates
[02:38.91] Recognize my face? They call me, 'Broken Glass'
[02:43.73] That's because of his sound that I got Incomprehensible
[02:51.20]
[02:56.66] What you pay for all these riches and fame
[03:02.68] Well, it's all a vicious game, you're a little insane
[03:09.81] Well, you're a little insane oh, a little insane
[03:17.05] 'Cause the thing that you gain is the public acclaim
[03:22.88]
[03:24.26] Don't forget who you are, don't forget who you are
[03:31.20] Don't forget who you are, you're a Rock 'n Roll star
[03:37.72]
