Well, there's slim times when my words won't rhyme |
|
And the hills I face are a long hard climb |
|
I just sit cross-legged with my old guitar |
|
It kind of makes me feel like a rock and roll star |
|
Well, it makes me laugh, Lord, it makes me cry |
|
And I think for once let me just get high |
|
Let me get electric, put a silk suit on |
|
Turn my old guitar into a tommy gun |
|
And root-toot-shoot myself to fame |
|
Every kid alive gonna know my name |
|
An overnight phenomenon like there's never been |
|
A motivated supersonic king of the scene |
|
I'll be a teenage idol, just give me a break |
|
I'm gonna be a teenage idol no matter how long it takes |
|
You can't imagine what it means to me |
|
I'm gonna grab myself a place in history |
|
A teenage idol that's what I'm gonna be, yeah |
|
Well, life is short and the world is rough |
|
And if you're gonna boogie, boy, you got to be tough |
|
Nobody knows if I'm dead or alive |
|
I just drink myself to sleep each night |
|
And so I pray to the teenage god of rock |
|
If I make it big, let me stay on top |
|
You got to cut me loose from this one room dive |
|
Put me on the ladder, keep this boy alive |
|
And root-toot-shoot myself to fame |
|
Every kid alive gonna know my name |
|
An overnight phenomenon like there's never been |
|
A motivated supersonic king of the scene |
|
I'll be a teenage idol, just give me a break |
|
I'm gonna be a teenage idol no matter how long it takes |
|
You can't imagine what it means to me |
|
I'm gonna grab myself a place in history |
|
A teenage idol that's what I'm gonna be |
