Busy Being a Rockstar Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You told me I’ll spend my life getting over my parents
So I better hold tight
I told you I’ll be alright
'Cause I got a good mother and you got a good wife
I don’t blame you, I just think you are the reason I messed up
My behaviour is the product of the day you walked out
[Chorus]
Everybody tells me that I’m killing it
Why the hell you missing it?
Who’d you think that you are, you are
Thought you were a warrior
When you gonna change daddy, where the fuck are ya?
Everybody tells me that I’m killing it
Such a shame you’re missing it
I never know where you are, you are
Turn up in your new car
Don’t be giving me your guilt
I’m busy being a rockstar
Yeah, I’m busy being a rockstar
[Verse 2]
I know I’ll always pretend that you’re gonna do better
Though I know how this ends
You’ll turn up drunk tryna be friends
Telling me you're sorry but in your defence
You were never made to feel important when you were younger
Your behaviour is the product of the day he walked out
[Chorus]
Everybody tells me that I’m killing it
Why the hell you missing it?
Who’d you think that you are, you are
Thought you were a warrior
When you gonna change daddy, where the fuck are ya?
Everybody tells me that I’m killing it
Such a shame you’re missing it
I never know where you are, you are
Turn up in your new car
Don’t be giving me your guilt
I’m busy being a rockstar
Yeah, I’m busy being a rockstar
[Bridge]
Isn’t it funny how everything that’s coming
Has always been around, been around, been around
Swear I’ll be different but I don’t know if I’m different
I keep on going round, going round, going round
Isn’t it funny how everything that’s coming
Has always been around, been around, been around
Swear I’ll be different but I don’t know if I’m different
I keep on going round, going round, going round
[Chorus]
Everybody tells me that you're killing it
Why the hell am I missing it?
I’ve been going so far, so far
I thought I was a warrior
When we gonna change daddy, where the fuck are ya?
Everybody tells me that you're killing it
Such a shame I'm missing it
I never know where you are, you are
Turn up in my new car
I’ve been missing out cause I was busy being a rockstar
Yeah, I was busy being a rockstar
Busy being a rockstar
Yeah, I was busy being a rockstar
Busy being a rockstar

What did IDER say about "Busy Being a Rockstar"?
We both have really good relationships with our dads, so it’s not necessarily a personal story… The song stemmed from this idea that, no matter what, your parents are going to fuck you up, and that being the cycle of life, you’ll take that on and you’ll fuck up your kids! The song stems from that, b...
