lyrics
Life is easy for all the millionaires and socialites
I'm sick and tired of being bored
I can't go anywhere in this town tonight
They said I could do anything when I was a younger man
Fresh out of school
You bet I would do anything to become a celebrity
I'm mister cool
Call me mister cool
I need glamorizing
I need merchandising
I'll do what you want me to
I wanna be a big time player x2
I wanna make you well aware
(you gotta) make me x4
A STAR!
I will go far
I have a recurring dream
I'm wearing Givenchy at the Grammy awards
Everyone is so pretty
Undeniable dandies loved and adored
I hear a voice call out my name
I've hit the big time
I'm a nominee
But just before I win I wake
Up in my tiny apartment in SGV
I need advertising
I need televising
I'll do what you want me to
I wanna be a big time player x2
I wanna make you well aware
I wanna be a big time player x3
I wanna make you well aware
(you gotta) make me x4
A star
I'm sick and tired of being bored
I can't go anywhere in this town tonight
They said I could do anything when I was a younger man
Fresh out of school
You bet I would do anything to become a celebrity
I'm mister cool
Call me mister cool
I need glamorizing
I need merchandising
I'll do what you want me to
I wanna be a big time player x2
I wanna make you well aware
(you gotta) make me x4
A STAR!
I will go far
I have a recurring dream
I'm wearing Givenchy at the Grammy awards
Everyone is so pretty
Undeniable dandies loved and adored
I hear a voice call out my name
I've hit the big time
I'm a nominee
But just before I win I wake
Up in my tiny apartment in SGV
I need advertising
I need televising
I'll do what you want me to
I wanna be a big time player x2
I wanna make you well aware
I wanna be a big time player x3
I wanna make you well aware
(you gotta) make me x4
A star
