Dead Rock Star
(feat. The Stooges)
They think that I've got the bread
They want to read my head
The position show his cool
Like football star in school
Someone to sell me
Someone to tell me
I'm a dead rock star
in a dead rock car
I'm a dead rock star
I'm so afraid of failing
I hang onto the railing
This cold hard graduation
Kills all infatuation
I took the hazing
They said "amazing"
I'm a dead rock star
in a dead rock car
I'm a dead rock star
I gathered awful knowledge
You cannot get in college
Would you like Cain or Abel
I'll bring them to the table
They try to rope me
They try to grope me
I'm a dead rock star
in a dead rock car
I'm a dead rock star
What can I hope for ?
What can I hope for ?
Nothing to live for
Nothing to live for
I'm a dead rock star
in a dead rock car
I'm a dead rock star

What Becomes A Legend Most
What becomes a legend most
When shes alone in a hotel lobby
What becomes a legend most
Some bad champagne and some foreign bottled beer
What becomes a legend most
When the musicians have come and then leave her
What becomes a legend most
Besides being a legendary star
What becomes a legend most
Lying in bed cold and regal
What becomes a legend most
Lying in bed watching a talk show on tv
What becomes a legend most
Fifty days in fifty cities
And everyone says she looks pretty
At least as pretty as a legend should
Fifty days can wear you down
Fifty cities flying by
A different man in each different hotel
And if youre not careful, word can get around
What becomes a legend most
Not a bed, that is half empty
Not a heart, that is left empty
Thats not pretty, not pretty at all
What becomes a legend most
When shes lying in her hotel room
What becomes a legend most
Well baby, tonight its you (tonight its you)
Baby, tonight its you
(what becomes a legend most, sha-la-la-la-la) baby, its you
(what becomes a legend most, sha-la-la-la-la) maybe tomorrow
(what becomes a legend most, sha-la-la-la-la) baby, its you
(what becomes a legend most, sha-la-la-la-la)
(what becomes a legend most, sha-la-la-la-la)
(what becomes a legend most, sha-la-la-la-la)
(what becomes a legend most, sha-la-la-la-la)
(what becomes a legend most, sha-la-la-la-la)

Never played...
I never played Yankee Stadium
or the Palladium
but I'm a rock star.
'Never met Janice
Jimi or Bob
but I'm a rock star,
drumming the air,
busting guitar
only in my dreams.
But I'm a rock star, babe.
And I know a chord
you never heard-
NeverherdB4!
cuz I'm a rock star
and like John Lennon, I
am very bored.

Im A Legend Tonight
Ive been working at my job, slaving like a dog all day
And Ive been thinking about you, girl
And watching the minutes slip away
Yeah, and I know theres someone inside me that nobody sees
And I know in the darkness youre gonna be reaching for me
Im a legend tonight
Gonna make you feel right
When you reach for the light
Im a legend tonight
Im a legend tonight, legend
Gonna make you feel right, legend
When you reach for the light, legend
Im a legend tonight
You know they try to slow me, sometimes I think Im gonna stop
But I gotta keep on going, believing in 5 o clock, yeah
And on the edge of the darkness well be living in another world
And I know that a part of yous gonna be part of me, girl
Im a legend tonight, legend
Gonna make you feel right, legend
When you reach for the light, legend
Im a legend tonight, legend
Im a legend tonight, legend
Gonna make you feel right, legend
When you reach for the light, legend
Im a legend tonight
Look at me
I dont know what happens when the race is run
I dont know what tells me if Ive lost or won
But I know that Ill make it through the day alright
And girl, youre gonna find out
Im a legend tonight, legend
Gonna make you feel right, legend
When you reach for the light, legend
Im a legend tonight, legend
Im a legend tonight, legend
Gonna make you feel right, legend
When you reach for the light, legend
Im a legend tonight, legend
Im a legend tonight, legend
Gonna make you feel right, legend
When you reach for the light, legend
Im a legend tonight, legend
Im a legend tonight, legend
Gonna make you feel right, legend
When you reach for the light, legend

Rock & Roll Star
I was just a boy when the river ran dry
And I can still remember my mama cry
She said son leave as fast as you can
But dont waste your life in this rock n roll band
I saw the light and left as fast as I could
I knew deep down it was gonna do me good
So I threw my fender in an old friends car
I knew Id come home a rock nroll star
So we hit the road but the road hit back
We thought wed take the world with a hit and run attack
Now Im center stage but it feels bizarre
Despite new cars and caviar
An overnight success created by the press
But theyll eat you up if you show them any stress
So I lick my wounds and I hide my scars
The whole world thinks Im a rock n roll star
Rock n roll star, rock n roll star
Thats what they call you
Thats not what you are
Rock n roll star, rock n roll star
I still wanna be a rock n roll star
So we got a break in our whirlwind tour
I called home said Im comin home for sure
Im tired of hurry up, make the plane, jump in the car
Im home on loan, Im a rock n roll star

The Way how Rock Meant to Be
Rock as a legend, Rock as a soul.put ur heads up.coz it's rock and roll.
Aint nobody gonna trouble me..stage my guitar like a rocabee.
The sting that hits with the metal that rings.aint nobody know what i am trying to sing..
Real life, real shits make me sick.it aint matter me coz i'm just here to sing.
Stomp that guitar, play the lead, roll that base lets all face the ring.
Rock aint dead rock aint a noise.rock is a music of legend Soul.
Mom dad dont bother me.when i am in it's no stopping me..
The rules has been broken, history has been staged.the genre of music has never been same.
So guys let's not forget this..rock and roll must be in every playlist.
ROck and roll lets stomp the beast..yeahh

Tony went to fight in Belfast
Rudi stayed at home to starve
I could make it all worthwhile as a rock & 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 & roll star
So inviting - so enticing to play the part
I could play the wild mutation as a rock & roll star
Get it all yeah!
Oh yeah
I could do with the money
I'm so wiped out with things as they are
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 & roll star
I could fall in love all right as a rock & roll star
I could make a transformation as a rock & roll star
So inviting - so enticing to play the part
I could play the wild mutation as a rock & roll star
Get it all yeah!
Oh yeah

A Young Man Is Gone
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
Ah ah ah ah ahhhhh
Now a young mans gone
But his legend lingers on
For so much had he to give
But his life is through
For the story told is true
For he died just as he lived
For this daring young star
Met his death while in his car
No one knows the reason why
Screaming tire, flashing fire
And gone was this young star
Oh how could they let him die
Still a young man is gone
Yet his legend lingers on
For he died without a cause
And they say that hell
Be known for evermore
As the rebel without a cause

Wish You Were Here
So
So you think you can tell
Heaven from hell
Blue skys from grey
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail
A smile from a veil
Yeah do you think you can tell
Did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts
Hot ashes for trees
Hot air for a cool breeze
Cold comfort for change
Yeah and did you exchange
A walk on part in this war
For a leading role in a cage
How I wish, how I wish you were here
Were just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Were running over the same old ground
What have we found
The same old fears
Well I wish you were here
I said I wish you were here yeah
Oh how I wish you were here
How I wish you were here
Hey and I wish you were here
Hey my rock star
How did you get so turned around
My rock star
How you did you get so turned around
Oh my rock star
(how did you get so turned around)
Did you get so turned around
Hey my my rock star
(how did you get so turned around
Inside out
Cut it all out now
Cut it all out now
Cut it all out now
Cut it all out now
Cut it out now

When you wish upon a star
Dont let yourself fall, fall in too hard
I fell into you and Im on my back
An insect decaying in your little trap
I squirm into you, now Im in your gut
I fell into you, now Im in a rut
i lift you up like the sweetest angel,
Ill tear you down like a whore.
I will bury your God in my warm spit,
Youll be deformed in your porn
Rock star, yeah (youre such a dirty, dirty)
Rock star, yeah (dirty, dirty, dirty)
You eat up my heart and all the little parts
Your star is so sharp
It leaves me jagged holes
I make myself sick just to poison you
If I cant have you then no one will

You are the one I want and what I want is so unreal
Im such a dirty rock star yeah...

Rock n Roll Heaven
Oh Freddie as I am watching you on tv
I can see how much you want to break free
Never before actually seen you in drag
You legend, you were the best rocker fag
What's it like in rock n roll heaven
Look out for my brother, a bass legend
And the other guy from the band
his guitar talks, Peter is also his name
And when you hear Styx, pieces of eight
you will understand how I feel & totally relate
We now have everything or so people say
But now this emptiness haunts me everyday
Bono
He uses his power in a great way of that none can deny
Fair dues to the rock star Bono his very best he try
For the Stateless and the Homeless and the millions in poverty
Apart from his mate Bob Geldof there are few as great as he,
He talks to World leaders and every known billionaire
About the starving millions in the bigger World out there
He uses his status as a World renowned rock star in such a worldly way
To such a marvellous person respect we ought to pay,
On the t v chat show 'Enough Rope' with Andrew Denton with Bono I was impressed
He talked of the World's hungry the Stateless and oppressed
More than just another rock star oh yes indeed far more
What can be said of Bono that has not been said before?
So well read and so knowledgeable and yet so very wise
This rock star known as Bono is an angel in disguise.

I Pledge Allegiance To The State Of Rock & Roll
Looking back yeah I feel alright
Getting more than my expectations
Yeah my future looks clear and bright
I'm living up to my reputation
Yeah, I'm satisfied
Yeah, until the day I die
I gave my blood and I gave my soul
I stood my ground and I took control
The legend's growing as the story's told
I pledge allegiance to the state, of rock and roll
Oh yeah!
I've been a rebel for all my life
I never cared about regulations
I only went for the things I liked
And my guitar was my inspiration
Yeah, we pay a price
Yeah, I made the sacrifice
I gave my blood and I gave my soul
I stood my ground and I took control
The legend's growing as the story's told
I know that heaven's gonna wait
I pledge allegiance to the state, of rock and roll
Yeah, I'm satisfied
Yeah, until the day I die
I gave my blood and I gave my soul
