Rockstar - Ben Folds

Rockstar Lyrics

If you want to be free
Then I want you to be
Youre not mine anymore
Youre public propertyYoure a slave to these people who
Dont even know you
You think they adore you
They do, then they throw you awayGive the people what they want
Youve got to give the people what they want
Got to give the people what they want
Rock starYou can shine all alone
But you still need your friends
To remind you, you're nothing
Unless you're plugged in'Cause baby the truth is
You need their approval
To tell you you're cool
Hey, but look how you pay for itGive the people what they want
Youve got to give the people what they want
Got to give the people what they want

Rock star
Rock star
Rock starOh, is that what you are?
There must be thousands of youSo you're time is encroached now
Youre image is dumbed down
Youre full of it now
What about when it runs outMaybe you'll come back
Yeah, maybe Ill be here
Youre already gone so just go
'Cause they're waiting for youYeah, you
Youve got to give the people what they want
Got to give the people what they
WantOh, is that what you are?
