Rockstar
Poison · Hollyweird [2002]
Oh, yeah!
Limousines
Champagne
Get my clothes
custom made
I take handfuls of pills
Trash my house in the hills
Smash up my car
Just to get me my thrills
I'm rollin' around the world
I'm gonna do me 'bout a million girls
Well I break all their hearts
Bring them down to their knees
I do what I want, yeah I do as I please
chorus
I wanna be a big rock star, yeah
I wanna drive a big black car, yeah
All the girls will strum on my guitar
when I'm a big rock star
I want my face on your wall
Want Cameron Diaz just to give me a call
I've been nobody's fool,
gonna die while I'm cool
I make all the laws and I break all their rules.
Porn Stars
King of sleaze
Dirty movies
Hey, look at these!
Velvet rope, VIP
Hollywood cowboy mama look at me
chorus
I wanna be a big rock star, yeah
I wanna drive a big black car, yeah
I'm gonna push it all way too far
when I'm a big rock star
CC, do it
guitar solo
I play for the masses,
sex on the stage
girls shake their asses
Then come taste my fame
Backstage is my thing
So get in the ring
We do anything
Cause here, I'm the king!
Chorus 2x's
I wanna be a big rock star
I wanna drive a big black car
Who the hell you think you are?
