(verse 1)
Elvis sang viva Las Vegas
Marylin on the Silver Screen
Joplin, Gable, & Betty Davis
Boagie, Hendrix, & Jimmy Dean

(pre-chorus)
I don't know about the status quo
But I really don't see this obsession
To feel the need,
To make you wanna say...

(chorus)
You wanna be, You wanna be,
You wanna be a Star
You wanna be, You wanna be
You wanna be

(verse 2)
Wannabes sell their soul for money
Corner of Hollwood & Vine
Shooting stars but it's kinda funny
How they slowly fade with... time
