Lyrics
He's A Star
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It really doesn't matter if he
Suffered all he claims
You know he started somewhere
And he found his way to fame
And feeding on the lonely crowd
He finally belongs
A power by the microphone he sings
His troubled songs
He's a star
No one can tell him anymore
He'll ride as far
As the road can go
And what it costs, he oughta know
He said he'd do it
He's a star
They're hangin' on his music
As it fills the concert hall
And he's teasin' them with moments
When you think he'll give it all
But he's holdin' back the total, 'cause
That's how he works the spell
Yeah, he likes to leave 'em hungry
Yeah he loves to hear 'em yell!
'Cause he's a star
No one can tell him anymore
He'll ride as far
As the road can go
And what it costs, he oughta know
He said he'd do it
He's a star
And finally, the wild applause
That cleans his soul and saves
He's left with no companions
Only enemies and slaves
He's scared again the show
Was slow, he felt it fall behind
Tomorrow night's already raising riot in his mind
But he's a star
No one can tell him anymore
He'll ride as far
As the road can go
And what it costs, he oughta know
He said he'd do it
He's a star
