Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm through with standing in line to pubs I'll never get in
It's like the bottom of the ninth and I'm never gonna win
Life hasn't turned out quite the way I want it to be
(Tell me what you want)
[Verse 2]
I want a huge sail that will hold the squalls
And a big black ship with some cannon balls
Dont want to join Davey Jones
Twenty thousand leagues under the sea
(So how you gonna do it)
[Verse 3]
I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
I'd even grow my beard and change my name
[Verse 4]
We all just wanna be big rockstars
Live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIPs with the movie stars
Every good gold digger's gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny with her bleach blond hair
[Verse 5]
And we'll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary of today's who's who
They'll get you anything with that evil smile
Everybody's got a rum dealer on speed dial
Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar
[Verse 6]
Gonna sing those songs that offend the censors
(Singing those songs that offend the censors)
Poppin' my pills from a Pez dispenser
Rockstars don't do mornings
[Verse 7]
Get washed up sailors writing all our songs
(Get washed up sailors writing all our songs)
Lip sync 'em every night so I don't get 'em wrong
We'll sing them dusk till morning
[Verse 8]
We all just wanna be big rockstars
Live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIPs with the movie stars
Every good gold digger's gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny with her bleach blond hair
[Verse 9]
And we'll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary of today's who's who
They'll get you anything with that evil smile
Everybody's got a rum dealer on speed dial
Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar
(Everybody's got a rum dealer on speed dial)
Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar
