There's a rockstar in the room Singing thru the cigarettes, poetry and blues Well the cigarette's for show, the poetry you know And the blues? Well i guess that's why they tell you Not to hold your breath for too long It's the rock part that makes them stay put It's the star that makes them far away They are heavy and they're light Glowing there all night on the ground They burn a hole in your chest When you lay down to rest too close Underunderunderneath a voice & pick I will be warm: my words make sparks Am i overoveroveroverover it I am a rock, i've never even moved Well i am your rock star any time you want No cover charge, i can't do both At least i charge more often Than i cover up, most of the time I'm in a forest of illusion That my words slash & burn all up We're all rockstars we tear it all up We rock the mic on mtv And the only way we know That the other one exists is through this We're playing live at the forum But the forum's been dead for years
