Popstar Lyrics


So your girlfriend wants to be a popstar
And beat the charts outta me
She wants to move a million units, man
Probably just to prove she can
And after a couple of hits
She'll be buying a new pair of mitts
I can see just where she's heading
She's as predictable as Armageddon
Oh, they don't make 'em like they use to
They don't make 'em like they use to
No, they don't make 'em like they use to
You should have just stuck with me
Your girlfriend wants to be a popstar
And live in Primrose Hill
She'll join the meritocracy
And get to meet all of rock's aristocracy

And be someone everyone knows
Who all the designers send all their new clothes
But when she starts to look like Kylie Minogue
She might even get her picture in Vogue
Baby, they don't make 'em like they use to
They don't make 'em like they use to
No, they don't make 'em like they use to
You should have just stuck with me
Your baby wants to be a popstar
Probably just to spite me
She thinks it's all so easy to get to the top
But a girl like that, she won't know where to stop
And when her most recent therapist
Suggests that maybe she become a Buddhist
She might even consider giving up red meat
Man, you're gonna look back to when your life was so sweet
You know they just don't make 'em like they used to
No, they don't make 'em like they use to
They just don't make 'em like they use to

The Pretenders are a rock band who came to prominence during the punk and new wave movement of the late 1970s due to their innovative songwriting and charismatic performances. The original band consisted of group founder, songwriter, vocalist, and rhythm guitarist Chrissie Hynde, lead and rhythm guitarist James Honeyman-Scott, bassist Pete Farndon, and drummer Martin Chambers. Save for Hynde, a native of Akron, Ohio, the original band members were all from the U.K. This band was fractured by drug-related deaths and numerous subsequent personnel changes have taken place over the years, with Hynde as the sole constant. With Hynde at the helm, the band drifted through more adult contemporary-oriented territory, but experienced a critical resurgence with a trio of albums released between the mid-90s and early 00s that explored a more mature side of the band's classic sound.
