It's clear you have a deathwish

From what I hear

Your latest dish, lives for you

It scares you half to death



You bend over backwards to make a statement

Hang from the rafters and lick the pavement

Split your lip and barely cathc a breath



Your lovely eyes that close like petals

Your sweet surprise can win you medals

You strut your stuff and fan your peacock feathers



Even if you fake it to get attention

Whatever it'll take to get them to listen

Piss on your designer boots and designer leathers



[Chorus]

Hey little rock star (hey little rock star)

Why don't you see

This is not all that, its cracked up to be

And I can't say I blame you

For throwin' the towel in

For buying more fame 

Cashing your chips in

With all your talent

So much to gain

To toss it away like this

It'd be such a shame



Juvenile delinquent, misunderstood

Peter Pan and Robin Hood

Will you ever do what your afraid to do?

Will you ever know happiness of a rock star?

Was your deathwish stronger than you are?

Will you go up in flames like the torches that are carried for you?



[Chorus]

To toss it away like this

Would be such a shame

To toss it away like this

Would be such a shame
