Lyrics
Johnny went to fight in Belfast
Rudi stayed at home to starve
I could make it all worthwhile as a rock and roll star
Bevan tried to change the nation
Sonny wants to turn the world
Well he can tell you that he tried
I could make a transformation as a rock and roll star
So inviting
So enticing to play the part
I could play the wild mutation as a rock and roll star
Get it on, yeah
Ooh, yeah
I could do with the money
You know that I
I'm so wiped out with things as they are
You know that I
I'd send my photograph to my honey
And I'd c'mon like a regular superstar
I could make a transformation as a rock and roll star
So inviting
So enticing to play the part
I could play the wild mutation as a rock and roll star
Get it on, yeah
Ooh, yeah
I could do with the money
You know that I
I'm so wiped out with things as they are
You know that I
I'd send my photograph to my honey
And I'd c'mon like a regular superstar
I could fall asleep at night as a rock and roll star
I could fall in love all right as a rock and roll star
Rock and roll star
Rock and roll star
(Just watch me now)
