Weekend, The - 80´s Rock Star lyrics

You, you used to rock me
In your acid-wash jeans in 1983
You, with your big hair
Girls would throw you their underwear
I was only old enough to stare
And wish you were mine

Well, you (you) were my rock ´n´ roll dream
Staring back at me from every magazine
I was in love with your hair spray
Your spandex & rebel ways!
I just couldn´t wait to see you play
But just look at you today

[Chorus]
My 80´s rock star
They wonder where you´re
Wish you were here with me
Instead of on the streets
My 80´s rock star
They thought you would go real far
My 80´s rock star

Oh, you (you) you would made and lost your fortune
By the time your 2nd album came & fell
Spent it all on your fast drugs, your fast girls, your fast cars
When the 90´s came, you sold your last guitar

[Chorus]

They thought you would go real far
But you are washed out, & you are lonely, & you are tired
And there isn´t much left to you to admire
And you gave the world everything you had
And were left with nothing, now how about that?

My 80´s rock star
They wonder where you´re
Well now you are here with me
Instead of on the streets
My 80´s rock star
They thought you would go real far
My 80´s rock star
They wonder where you´re
Well now you are here with me
Instead of on the streets
My 80´s rock star
They thought you would go real far

Yea!
