rockstar
T-Spoon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I never... I never... I never wanna be...
Don't wanna be a rockstar

Come down, gather round
Take a look what I found
Living good, living fine
But he does too many lines
Hardcore, grunge hits
I want another lick
Fast car, caviar
Limo with a minibar
High risk, cheap tricks
Looking for another hit

I never... I never... I never wanna be...
Don't wanna be a rockstar

Did you hear the story
Of the morning glory
She is hot as hell
When she shakes her feather tail
Take it of in a flash
Better than an autograph
Singing high, singing low
Hidehidehideho

Rockstar, where you are
Driving in your fancy car
Lot's of women, much cash
Tell me where you hide your stash

I never... I never... I never wanna be...
Don't wanna be a rockstar

Rockstar, tattooed
Rebel with an attitude
Living life on the run
Tell me are you having fun

Let me tell you where to go
If you want a rockshow
Beck, tool, no fool
Hole is not a swimming pool
Red hot chili
Lenny needs some therapy
Offspring, greenday
Rock and roll is here to stay

I never... I never... I never wanna be...
Don't wanna be a rockstar

Rockstar, tattooed
Rebel with an attitude




Living life on the run
Tell me are you having fun

Overall Meaning

The song "Rockstar" by T-Spoon is a playful critique of the glamorous lifestyle of a rock and roll superstar. The lyrics express a desire to avoid the negative side effects of fame and fortune that come with being a rockstar. The opening lines of the song, "I never... I never... I never wanna be... Don't wanna be a rockstar," set the tone for a song that is dismissive of the kind of life that a rockstar would lead.


The verses describe the luxurious existence of a rockstar, with flashy cars, expensive food, and beautiful women. However, the lyrics also point out the darker aspects of this lifestyle, including drug use and dangerous behavior. The chorus reiterates the sentiment that the singer has no desire to live this kind of life, and would prefer to avoid the pitfalls of fame and fortune.


The bridge of the song tells a story about a woman called "the morning glory," who is beautiful and talented. However, the lyrics suggest that this kind of person is rare and not worth pursuing. The final verse lists a number of famous rock bands, suggesting that they represent the best of the genre. The song concludes with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the singer's resistance to becoming a rockstar.


Overall, "Rockstar" is a satirical take on the traditional rock and roll lifestyle. The lyrics are tongue-in-cheek, and the song uses a catchy melody and upbeat tempo to keep things light-hearted. Despite its critical stance on rockstar culture, the song still manages to celebrate the power of rock music and its enduring popularity.
