ROOF MUSIC / WARNER CHAPPELL, 1990


Every time I turn on the telly it makes me feel so sick inside
When I see the crap a-moving, well, here’s the vow I’ve made
I wanna be-hey-hey-hey-hey
I wanna be-hey-hey-hey-hey
I wanna be-hey-hey-hey-hey
I wanna be
I wanna be-hey-hey-hey-hey
I wanna be-hey-hey-hey-hey

 

Well, I’m gonna make the big time, baby, gonna walk throughout the door
I’m gonna get what’s in for me, gonna hit the great big score
I wanna be-hey-hey-hey-hey
I wanna be-hey-hey-hey-hey
I wanna…I wanna…Wanna
I wanna be-hey-hey-hey-hey
I wanna be-hey-hey-hey-hey

 

Well, it’s time to change the old world, baby, with a lot of heart and soul
I’m gonna see what’s in for me in the hall of fame of rock’n’roll
Roll, roll, roll, roll, baby
Well, roll, roll, roll, roll, baby
Roll, roll, roll, baby…roll, roll, raw
Uh – hu, uh – hu, …
Well, I wanna be

 

A star, a star of the 21st…a star, a star of the 21st… a star, a star of the 21st …
