Underground Music

歌詞

He sold his old car and bought a guitar After quitting his nine to five He rolled in at noon and packed up his things And said to his pregnant wife, "Well I gotta go, sweetie pie, I'm leaving this life I'm going to L.A. and I'm gonna start a rock band." Because its a long, long, long way up to the top of the charts And I guess I'm just fed up I'll start a rock band And everyone will know They'll scream my name out when they hear me on the radio I'll be a rock star And everyone will see They'll be so jealous when they see me on T.V. Hey! He rolled into town with the windows rolled down In the back of a stranger's Benz He said, "Well would you mind if you'd spare me some time? I'm new here and could use a friend. See I need a bassist to play the same notes as me If you wanna team up, then I'll let you join my rock band." And the driver said, "Hey man, you gotta teach me to play." And the two of them shook hands I'll start a rock band And everyone will know They'll scream my name out when they hear me on the radio I'll be a rock star And everyone will see They'll be so jealous when they see me on T.V. Hey! They met a drummer playing on the streets His name was Funky and he had no teeth He said he'd join them if they paid for all The parking tickets that he got last Fall They bought some instruments and practiced hard They had their first gig at a local bar The man had one too many rum and cokes He choked, he choked, he choked! The drummer is in jail after selling some drugs And the driver died of heart disease The man is still in Cali scrubbing dirty tile floors In the bathroom of Studio B Well he had a date with the fame and fortune And he frequently thinks about the time he had a rock band And anyone can see that it didn't work out But he is happy as can be... I'll start a rock band And everyone will know They'll scream my name out when they hear me on the radio I'll be a rock star And everyone will see They'll be so jealous when they see me on T.V. Hey! I'll start a rock band And everyone will know They'll scream my name out when they hear me on the radio I'll be a rock star And everyone will listen They'll be so jealous when they see me on the television
