 I'm through with standing  in line to clubs we'll never get in
 It's like the bottom  of the ninth and I'm never gonna win
 This life  hasn't turned out quite the way I want it to be
 I want a brand  new house on an episode of Cribs
 And a bathroom  I can play baseball in
 And a king  size tub big enough for ten plus me
 I'll need a credit  card that's got no limit
 And a big  black jet with a bedroom in it
 Gonna join  the mile high club at 37,000 feet
 I want a new  tour bus full of old guitars
 My own star  on Hollywood Boulevard
 Somewhere  between Cher and James Dean is fine for me

 'Cause we all  just wanna be big rockstars
 And live in hilltop  houses driving fifteen cars
 The girls  come easy and the drugs come cheap
 We'll all  stay skinny 'cause we just  won't eat
 And we'll hang  out in the coolest bars
 In the VIP  with the movie stars
 Every good  gold digger's gonna wind up there
 Every Playboy  bunny with her bleach  blond hair

 I'm gonna sing  those songs that offend the censors
 Gonna pop  my pills from a pez dispenser
 I'll get washed-up  singers writing all my songs
 Lip sync  em every night so I don't get  'em wrong
 'Cause we all  just wanna be big rockstars
 And live in hilltop  houses driving fifteen cars
 The girls  come easy and the drugs come cheap
 We'll all  stay skinny 'cause we just  won't eat
 And we'll hang  out in the coolest bars
 In the VIP  with the movie stars
 Every good  gold digger's gonna wind up there
 Every Playboy  bunny with her bleach  blond hair
 And we'll hide  out in the private rooms
 With the latest  dictionary and today's who's who
 They'll  get you anything with that evil smile
 Everybody's  got a drug dealer on  speed dial and
Hey, hey,  I wanna be a rockstar
Hey, hey,  I wanna be a rawkstar
