about

A Calling to all the kids jumping up and down on their beds dreaming of being a Rockstar!!!
Listen for the pots and pans being played!

lyrics

Through big drum breaks, the bedroom shakes, he's never had it so good
He's a raspy singer with a big middle finger, his band plays just like they should
His voice is rowdy, to the crowd he always makes them cheer
Stadium Bedroom, Air guitar no head room, Path is clear

Thumps on the floor
They cant take it anymore
They get ignored
He's playing his encore

Rockstar, you are, you pretty thing, crashed down from Mars
And the better they know it, you'll be a poet driving flashy cars
Your head is bursting and your heart is raw
You dont care your friends think you're a dinosaur
Rockstar, you are, you are, you are

She's a teenage queen who doesn't fit the scene dictated
Tired of Barbarella under her umbrella, that sound's inflated
So at night she writes and wants to explore
Pick up the pieces, Pick up a Guitar
She cant hear the names she's called, she's drowning them out
Put on your crazy makeup and give us a pout

Thumps on the floor
They cant take it anymore
They get ignored
He's playing his encore

Rockstar, you are, you pretty thing, crashed down from Mars
And the better they know it, you'll be a poet driving flashy cars
Your head is bursting and your heart is raw
You dont care your friends think you're a dinosaur
Rockstar, you are, you are, you are
