Star For A Week

Star For A Week (Live) - Steve Harley And Cockney Rebel

Anxious mother pleads come home dino

I can't believe that's my boy they're talking about

His dreams are in his motor-cycle

Swears he's gonna sort 'em out

He's going barefoot like the man with no name

Gonna break into a bank if he surrendered

Imagine the shame

I just wanna be someone anyone but I wanna be a

Star for a week or two

Just wanna be someone anyone

I'd be complete if I could be a star for a week

Across the country he's been stealing cars

Playing cat and mouse like a hero on d-day

Shoeless boy this is shotgun baby

Running from the law like it's a holiday

He's a good boy in his heart but a fool

Don't wanna be a fugitive he'd rather be at home

Or in school

I just wanna be someone anyone but I wanna be a

Star for a week or two

Just wanna be someone anyone

I'd be complete if I could be a star

Everywhere he reads give up dino

We wanna know what's this death-wish

It's talking about

He's cold he's hungry and he's scared

He's got his father in his mind and this message to get

Out I wanna steal wanna give wanna die wanna live

Wanna find my own identity like any other teenage kid

I just wanna be someone anyone but I wanna be a

Star for a week or two

Just wanna be someone anyone

I'd be complete if I could be a star

I Just wanna be someone anyone

But i wanna be a star for a week or two

Just wanna be someone anyone

I'd be complete if i could be a star

For a week
