Rockstar Lyrics

Artist: Ben Folds
Album: Sunny 16

If you want to be free
Then I want you to be
Youâ‚¬â„¢re not mine anymore
Youâ‚¬â„¢re public property

Youâ‚¬â„¢re a slave to these people who
Donâ‚¬â„¢t even know you
You think they adore you
They do
Then they throw you away

Give the people what they want
Youâ‚¬â„¢ve got to give the people what they want
Got to give the people what they want
Rock star

You 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 it

Give
The people what they want
Youâ‚¬â„¢ve got to give the people what they want
Got to give the people what they want
Rock star
Rock star
Rock star

Oh, is that what you are?
There must be thousands of you

So you're time is encroached now
Youâ‚¬â„¢re image is dumbed down
Youâ‚¬â„¢re full of it now
What about when it runs out
Maybe you'll come back
Yeah, maybe Iâ‚¬â„¢ll be here
Youâ‚¬â„¢re already gone
So just go
Cause their waiting for you
Yeah, you
Youâ‚¬â„¢ve got to give the people what they want
Got to give the people what they
Want

Oh, is that what you are?
