Written about my friend who is a major recording artist & how youtube screwed him & all major artists in the back. They make less than pennies on every play & there music can be stolen off youtube! Even the radio stations don't pay him.

Lyrics
Rock Star (So You Wanna Be) 8/20/97 Drum solo Intro 6 bar Intro 1 Wrote a very touchin letter To a major record label Said son, we're looking for that unique sound Are you ready willing and able 2 Now that got me thinking man What could that sound be? Maybe a sound like Nirvana, Sound Garden, or Ac-Dc 3 Well they said its gotta have great lyrics It's gotta have a good hook you see It's gotta fit into that certain niche man It's got to be great musically Chorus So you wanna be a rock star Well I'm sure you'll go far Guitar Interlude 16 bars 4 Now you may all be wonderin Just what the hells this all mean Well if you ain't got that unique sound man You're ruined musically 5 They say son things are different now It aien't like it use to be You gotta pump out them gold platinum records for us man So we can live the life of ease Chorus So you wanna be a Rock Star Huh! Well I'm sure you'll go far.yeah right! Break Hey all right, looks like they sent me a rock star manual Lets see here, it says rule no 1 It says a, in order to be a rock star You must be able to play you’re Guitar well Hey! That aien’t no problem man.all right Rule no 2 here; it says a, in order to be a rock star You must have balls, hey, that aien’t no problem, I’ve got 2 of them, lets see rule no 3 In order to be a rock star you must smoke, drink, Take drugs & have illicit sex, Hmmm Also, you must be able to solve Einstein’s theory Of relativity, relativity, oh yeah man I’ve got plenty of them Looks like I’m gonna be a rock star, alright 6 So no one has the answer That defines that unique sound Just keep writing from your heart man And your music will be profound 7 So don't let them dictate or dominate What you should listen to Just let your ear be the judge man Unto your own self be true Chorus So you wanna be a Rock Star Huh! Well I'm sure you'll go far Yeah Right
