Little Rock Star

It's clear you have a death wish
From what I hear your latest dish lives for you
It scares you half to death
You bend over backwards to make a statement
Hang from the rafters and lick the pavement
Split your lip and barely catch a breath

Your lovely eyes that close like petals
Your sweet surprise can win you medals
You strut your stuff and fan your peacock feathers
Even if you fake it to get attention
Whatever it'll take to get them to listen
Piss on your designer boots and designer leathers

Hey little rock star, why don't you see?
This is not all that it's cracked up to be
And I can't say I blame you for throwin' the towel in
Or buying more fame, cashing your chips in
With all your talent, so much to gain
To toss it away like this would be such a shame

Juvenile delinquent misunderstood
Peter Pan and Robin Hood
Will you ever do things you're afraid to do?
Will you ever know happiness of a rock star?
Was your death wish stronger than you are?
Will you go up in flames like the torches that are carried for you?

Hey little rock star, what don't you see?
This is not all that it's cracked up to be
I can't say I blame you for throwin' the towel in
Or buying more fame by cashing your chips in
With all of your talent and so much to gain
To toss it away like this would be such a shame
To toss it away like this would be such a shame
To toss it away like this would be such a shame
