Rock Star

If you want to be free



Then I want you to be



You're not mine anymore



You're public property



You're a slave to these people who



Don't even know you



You think they adore you



They do, then they throw you away



Give the people what they want



You've got to give the people what they want



Got to give the people what they want



Rock star



You can shine all alone



But you still need your friends



To remind you, you're nothing



Unless you're plugged in



'Cause baby the truth is



You need their approval



To tell you you're cool



Hey, but look how you pay for it



Give the people what they want



You've got to give the people what they want



Got to give the people what they want



Rock star



Rock star



Rock star



Oh, is that what you are?



There must be thousands of you



So you're time is encroached now



You're image is dumbed down



You're full of it now



What about when it runs out



Maybe you'll come back



Yeah, maybe I'll be here



You're already gone so just go



'Cause they're waiting for you



Yeah, you



You've got to give the people what they want



Got to give the people what they



Want



Oh, is that what you are?
