Songtext:
I made my life as a music man,
I can't say that I'd ever change it
I counted time and my song began
With no-one to help me arrange it
There've been better times in better places
With people who had kinder faces,
But there's more to a band
Than a one night stand,
So I stay a music man
Then there's Mister Ten Percent
Takes your money just to pay his rent
You put your feet across the door,
Step in gold dust on the floor
The nice man shows you where to sign,
You lose your life on the dotted line
He's a man of ice, you can see right through,
But he's gonna make a star out of you
What's a star,
What's a star,
What's a star?
If you raise your glasses high,
You might see him cross the sky
He's a singer,
He's a writer,
He's a genuine exciter
He's a star,
He's a star,
He's a star
I can't say that I'd ever change it
I counted time and my song began
With no-one to help me arrange it
There've been better times in better places
With people who had kinder faces,
But there's more to a band
Than a one night stand,
So I stay a music man
Then there's Mister Ten Percent
Takes your money just to pay his rent
You put your feet across the door,
Step in gold dust on the floor
The nice man shows you where to sign,
You lose your life on the dotted line
He's a man of ice, you can see right through,
But he's gonna make a star out of you
What's a star,
What's a star,
What's a star?
If you raise your glasses high,
You might see him cross the sky
He's a singer,
He's a writer,
He's a genuine exciter
He's a star,
He's a star,
He's a star
