I'm working 9 to 5, it's like I'm buried alive My boss is always on my case and I hate him He's got Mercedes Benz with really lame ass rims And I'm stuck at the bus stop waiting His girlfriend is 18 and my girl just dumped me She said 'You can't afford me' and went for the money The money, money, money
[Chorus] I wish I was a rockstar, oh-oh oh-oh Breaking all the girls hearts, oh-oh oh-oh If I was Eddie Vedder, oh-oh oh-oh I'd bet you'd like me better, oh-oh oh-oh Doing shots of Patrón with P!nk and Emma Stone And the paparazzi stalk us when they carry me home I wish I'd learned to play the damn guitar I wish I was a rockstar I wish I was a rockstar
When I got home from work It went from bad to worst My roomie sold my Xbox for a 6-pack I wanna kick his ass and get all my cash back But he's six foot four and a douchebag
So I'm heading to LA with a guitar I can't play Hoping to someday, make a lot of money Money, money, money
[Chorus]
I learned a couple of chords and kept the verses short It was sad but now it's kinda funny I wrote a catchy song that went to number one About a girl that left me for the money
Now I am a rockstar, oh-oh oh-oh Breaking all the girls hearts, oh-oh oh-oh Hangin' out with Vedder, oh-oh oh-oh I bet you like me better, oh-oh oh-oh Doing shots of Patrón with P!nk and Emma Stone I bet you wish you were the one that got to carry me home Thank god I learned to play the damn guitar And I thank you for the way you broke my heart 'Cause now I am rockstar I am a rockstar I'm a rockstar
