Cat Stevens - To Be a Star lyrics

I was seventeen, You were working for Matthew and Son, The Beatles met the Queen, and I wrote I'm gonna get me a gun, yeah, yeah It was like a dream in the star machine, Oh, no, izitso, izitso? I never wanted to be a star, I never wanted to travel far I only wanted a little bit of love So I could put a little love in my heart I never wanted to be la-de-da, Go to parties "Avec le bourgeois" I only wanted to sing my song well, So I could ring a small bell in your heart Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I was on the road, Sleeping between lorry lights, oh no Stone-drunk and cold, Heading into a bad night, yeah, yeah Just another bean in the star machine, hi ho, Here I go, here I go I never wanted to be a star Buy my mum a Ferrari car I only wanted to run my own race, So I could win a small place in your heart Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Nature found a way, It picked me up off the dark side, yeah, yeah Showed me another day, it made me sing "I think I see the light" Not another bean in the star machine, oh no, This time I won't go I never wanted to be a star, I never wanted to travel far I only wanted a little bit of love So I could put a little love in my heart
