Song So You Want To Be A Rock ‘n’ Roll Star
Artist The Byrds
Album Live At Royal Albert Hall 1971

Lyrics

So you want to be a rock 'n' roll star
Then listen now to what I say
Just get an electric guitar
And take some time and learn how to play
And when your hair's combed right
And your pants are too tight
It's gonna be all right
Then it's time to go downtown
Where the agent man won't let you down
Sell your soul to the company
Who are waiting there to sell plasticware
And in a week or two
If you make the charts
The girls will tear you apart
What you paid for your riches and fame
Was it all a strange game?
You're a little insane!
The mone that came and the public acclaim
Don't forget what you are you're a rock' n' roll star
La la la la la la, la la la la la la
La la la
