lyrics

You wanna be a Big Star
OK.... I know

Got all the connections?
Just the right look to spark recollection?
Found an accessible sound?
A hit of cars crashing keeps the critics around!

But now you don't wanna be caught dead with me
Cuz I don't get you
You don't want to be caught dead with me
And I don't want to hear a word out of you

You wanna be a Big Star
OK.... I know

Show no signs of depression
But every last word is a hidden confession
Won't overstay the welcome?
Gonna get big then burn out and join Club 27?

You don't wanna be caught dead with me
And I don't blame you
You don't want to be caught dead with me
And I don't want to hear a word out of you

You wanna be a Big Star?
OK.... I know

Can you convince yourself of what your saying?
I think you might have cuz you're not playing around...
