| ...station all my life
I'd rather be a rockstar anytime Pushing a broomstick from 9 to 6 I'd rather be a rockstar to get my kicks 'Cause there's nothing I'd rather do Than play my guitar just for you And I hope that one day soon I'll find a place inside your heart Two, three, four! (Instrumental) |
