ROCKSTAR
That Dog Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can I take a picture with a rock star?
Your face wallpapers my walls.
Here's my number, when you're in town give me a call.
I know I don't know you, but I'm in-love.
The bad reviews kills me 'cause I know what you're made of.
I have ten copies of you on the cover.
Your CD singles comfort my ears.
Your unplugged songs bring me to tears.
I see your video in my dreams.
Can I shake your hand, you're totally supreme?
In That Dog's song "Rockstar", the lyrics describe a passionate fan's obsession with a musician. The first two lines showcase the fan's desire to be close to the rockstar, asking for a signed guitar and a photo together. The next line, "Your face wallpapers my walls," shows how the rockstar has become a central figure in the fan's life, almost an idol. The lyrics continue with the fan offering their number so they can be contacted when the rockstar is in town.
The chorus expresses how much the fan admires and loves the rockstar, despite not actually knowing them personally. The bad reviews of the rockstar's music hurt the fan because they believe in the artist's talent, and have ten copies of the musician's covers. The line, "When I went to see you, got a ride from my mother," showcases the fan's dedication, even to the point where they need their mom to give them a ride.
