There was a band and there were songs
And there was strength and courage
Blanketed was the right and wrong
Another whole world was turning
You said it would be crazy
Playing for the game
But I could be lost in a moment
To ideas of fortune and fame
Chorus:
Because everyone wants to be
A Rock-n-Roll star
Carried in a limo, treated so fine
Everyone wants to be a Rock-n-Roll star
Wearin' sunglasses in the night-time
There was a party goin' on
At least 5 days a week
Sometimes the band would play real strong
And sometimes the crowd would shriek
And I know this can't be easy
Playing for the game
But I could be lost in a moment
To ideas of fortune and fame
Chorus
He said it's all about delivery
When you let go of the punch-line
I think it's all about deliverance
And I'm gonna take my time
I'm gonna study up now
I'm gonna watch how they move
I'm gonna write a rock song
And I'm gonna make it groove
I'm not gonna sell my soul
To the Rock and Roll man
Because even though I'm a dreamer
This dream is in my hands
