paroles de chanson I'm Going to Be a Teenage Idol - Elton John

Well, there's slim times when my words won't rhyme
And the hills I face are a long hard climb
I just sit cross-legged with my old guitar
Ooh it kind of makes me feel like a rock and roll star

Well, it makes me laugh, Lord, it makes me cry
And I think for once let me just get high
Let me get electric, put a silk suit on
Turn my old guitar into atomic gun

And root-toot-shoot myself to fame
Every kid alive gonna know my name
An overnight phenomenon like there's never been
A motivated supersonic king of the scene

I'll be a teenage idol, just give me a break
I'm gonna be a teenage idol no matter how long it takes
You cannot imagine what it means to me
I'm gonna grab myself a place in history
A teenage idol, o!
That's what I'm gonna be, o yeah

Well, life is short and the world is rough
And if you're gonna boogie, boy, you got to be tough
Nobody knows if I'm dead or alive
I just drink myself to sleep each night

And so I pray to the teenage god of rock
If I make it big, let me stay on top
You got to cut me loose from this one room dive
Put me on the ladder, keep this boy alive

And root-toot-shoot myself to fame
Every kid alive gonna know my name
An overnight phenomenon like there's never been
A motivated supersonic king of the scene

I'll be a teenage idol, just give me a break
I'm gonna be a teenage idol no matter how long it takes
You can't imagine what it means to me
I'm gonna grab myself a place in a history
A teenage idol, oh, eh, ooh
That's what I'm gonna be
