| Song lyrics |
I’m through with standing in line
to clubs we’ll never get in
It’s like the bottom of the ninth
and I’m never gonna win
This life hasn’t turned out
quite the way I want it to be
(Tell me what you want)
I want a brand new house
on an episode of Cribs
And a bathroom I can play baseball in
And a king size tub big enough
for ten plus me
(So What You Need)
I’ll need a credit card that’s got no limit
And a big black jet with a bedroom in it
Gonna join the mile high club
At thirty-seven thousand feet
(Been there, Done that)
I want a new tour bus full of old guitars
My star own on Hollywood Boulevard
Somewhere between Cher and
James Dean is fine for me
(so how you gonna do it)
I’m gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
I’d even cut my hair and change my name
‘Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We’ll all stay skinny ‘cause we just won’t eat
And we’ll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger’s
Gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny
With her bleach blond hair
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels
Hire eight body guards that love to beat up assholes
Sign a couple autographs
So I can eat my meals for free
(I'll have the quesadilla)
I think I’m gonna dress my ass
with the latest fashion
Get a front door key to the Playboy mansion
Gonna date a centerfold that loves to
blow my money for me
(so how you gonna do it)
I’m gonna trade this life
For fortune and fame
I’d even cut my hair
And change my name
‘Cause we all just
wanna be big rockstars
And live in hilltop houses
driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and
the drugs come cheap
We’ll all stay skinny
‘cause we just won’t eat
And we’ll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger’s
gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny
with her bleach blond hair
And we’ll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary and
today’s who’s who
They’ll get you anything
with that evil smile
Everybody’s got a
drug dealer on speed dial well
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
I’m gonna sing those songs
that offend the censors
Gonna pop my pills
from a pez dispenser
get washed-up singers writing all my songs
Lip sync em every night so I don’t get ‘em wrong
Well we all just wanna be big rockstars
And live in hillltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We’ll all stay skinny ‘cause we just won’t eat
And we’ll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger’s gonna wind up there
Every playboy bunny with her bleach blond hair
And we’ll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary and today’s who’s who
They’ll get you anything with that evil smile
Everybody’s got a drug dealer on speed dial
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

The song is funny 'cause it's true.
Or at least it's what a lot of people believe to be true about rock stars. Or it's true for some rock stars - the ones who want to live the way it describes.
In any case, I'm not a big NB fan but I like this song. | 24-09-2007 17:54 diamond637 |  57 posts

Rating of 8.1?
That's hilarious.
This song is terrible. | 12-03-2009 08:31 ms021707 |  2 posts
| ok the reason i rate these lyrics great is this:
Who, in their life, who has not wanted to be a rockstar??
in all reality, everyone out there DREAMS of the life of rock bands, especially now-a-days, when these bands are making millions of dollars off of one song that might (and sometimes dont even) hit number one....
think about it, i'll bet the guys Finger Eleven or Blue October, or even older band like Blues Traveler and Gin Blossoms are MILLIONAIRES...
WHO DOESN'T WANT THE LIFE OF A MILLIONAIRE?
That is all Chad Kroeger is saying... he is merely asking, in not so many words, Who does not want to be a rockstar, for all the amazing perks that come along with the job???
Granted, i have read "The Dirt" by Motley Crue, it is not all glitz and glamor, but whats the point in out modern day rock bands if not for the idea of the classic 80's hair metal debauchery??
So, for all you guys who down nickleback for this song... My personal opinion is this:
Although not a complicated rock song with crazy riffs and a range of vocals, Nickleback decided to create a simple song, with a simple truth... Who wouldn't give up the life they have for the life of a rockstar, with the freedom of having more money than one would know what to do with, and the ability to do whatever one wanted, whenever one wanted...
THIS IS MY PERSONAL OPINION, BUST MY ASS AS MUCH AS YOU'D LIKE, BUT IT IS MY PERSONAL BELIEF.
I'm not saying this is one of the all-time greats (umm Led Zep would never write a song like this... hehe) but i am saying LYRICALLY this is a DECENT song, just a man asking questions of his fellow man, hoping someone out there feels the same way....
by they way, this record sold enough albums, i'm pretty sure it answered Chad Kroegers question of who else in the world would dream of being a rockstar... | 23-06-2009 15:46 risamarisa |  331 posts
