[Verse 1]
Hail! Hail! Rock and Roll!
Come here son, and let me help you sell your soul
Sit right down and everything'll be just fine
Won't you sign right here and it will all work out in time
[Verse 2]
So sit right down and I'll tell you about the plan
I'm gonna make you fifty thousand dollars and I'll only take ten
Million
But did I mention I got a new Mercedes-Benz?
Smile pretty, be witty, come meet your brand new friends
[Chorus 1]
Everybody thinks that you'll go far
You're gonna be a rock and roll star
[Verse 3]
Now you got a banker and a lawyer on 16th Avenue
That's the funny things they call you if you spend a couple extra years in school
They got big black cars and dollar signs in their eyes too
What is a boy like me to do?
[Verse 4]
I got this guitar that I play a little out of tune
But it makes no difference if I get all the right tattoos
Hey get a look at these cheekbones
Who cares if Mick Taylor was ever even in the Rolling Stones?
[Chorus 2]
Besides, he didn't even get that far
But me, I'm gonna be a rock and roll star
Yes I am
[Verse 5]
So now we're livin' happy underneath the Sony tree
And I got my big Top 10 record on WKD
Somethin' or other
Bartender could I have another and another and another
[Chorus 3]
You're lucky we're even drinkin' in this bar
'Cause I'm gonna be a Rock and Roll star
Yes I am
Yes I am
Gonna be a Rock and Roll star
