The Byrds - So You Want to Be a Rock & Roll Star lyrics

So you want to be a rock and roll star? Then listen now to what I say Just get an electric guitar Then take some time and learn how to play And with your hair swung right And your pants too tight, it's gonna be all right Then it's time to go downtown Where the agent man won't let you down Sell your soul to the company Who are waiting there to sell plastic ware And in a week or two if you make the charts The girls'll tear you apart The price you paid for your riches and fame Was it all a strange game? You're a little insane The money, the fame, and the public acclaim Don't forget who you are, you're a rock and roll star
