Dan Bull - Rocksmith lyrics

[Verse 1:] When I was little I wanted to be a rockstar But I thought playing guitar would be rock hard Taught myself a couple of chords but never got far So instead I picked a mic up and dropped bars And I’ve done alright, my rhymes are more tight Than the average, I tell you that isn’t a pork pie But please give me a minute, let me be forthright I wish I’d had the foresight to give my fingers more time Instead I let them get bored, on the fretboard But now I’ve found a course, and got it cracked like a fault line I learnt less in all my life than in the last fortnight Propelled my elevation level as if it was cordite Now I can hack at my axe, and rock it all night If rock is a thrill ride, then Rocksmith’s your tour guide Of course I’ve still got to put the time into it But the fact is with practice, I know I can do it [Hook:] Now I’m a Rocksmith I learned a lot quick Never mind pressing bu*tons I know how to pluck strings Now I’m a Rocksmith I learned a lot quick I never dreamed I’d be able to play such things [Verse 2:] Unlike the Deftones, I was tone def Leppards never change their spots, I’m just a radiohead Music left me with an aching head, not a head rush Crimson red blush, less trust then Jeb Bush I’m not an early riser, could never rise against The procrastination, it was always I versus them I couldn’t find a muse, or iron out the kinks I could kiss goodbye to screaming females, I was jinxed Wanted to slay em ike I’m waving a katana Or magic wands, make a splashh, take them to Nirvana Play in my pyjamas, as heavy as a monster truck Never mind the who, what, why, no-one wants to s** The police in Boston aren’t even as tough as this RSI, callouses and blisters, I’ve suffered it But I’ll never stop playing guitar Until all that remains of my nails are scars [Hook x2:] Now I’m a Rocksmith I learned a lot quick Never mind pressing bu*tons I know how to pluck strings Now I’m a Rocksmith I learned a lot quick I never dreamed I’d be able to play such things
