So You Want to Be a Rock & Roll Star (Hillman/McGuinn) - 2:36
So you you want to be a rockґn roll star
then listen now to what I say
Just get an electric guitar
and take some time and learn how to play
And when your hair's combed right and your pants fit tight
itґs gonna be all right
Then itґs time to go down town
where the agent men wonґt let you down
Sell your soul to the company
who are waiting there to sell plastic ware
And in a week or two if you make the charts
the girls'll tear you apart
The price you pay for your riches and fame
Was it all a strange game
Youґre a little insane
The money that came and the public acclaim
Donґt forget what you are
Youґre a rockґn roll star
