Maple St. - Rockstar Lyrics

I'm still a bad person I've just got pretty eyes
And an addiction to rubbing my ego out every night
I'm such a bad time I overthink I overuse
I'm just the gay friend in every indie film that you hate
About a rockstar

But still
I took myself to prom I tried hard to whiten my teeth
To make myself look better for the pictures my dad will take
To remember what life was like in two thousand and fifteen when we were all together

I said
Mom I don't wanna go to school I just wanna be a rockstar
I'm not f*cked up from all the moves I just like the way my voice sounds in my car
Dad I don't wanna get a job I just wanna be a big shot
I had a dream or two of who I wanna be and I know it's not what you want
Cause I just wanna be a rockstar

So I throw house parties till my parent comes home
And then I stay up at night because my mom's on the phone
Yelling at dad on the line about the red in my eyes
And how our therapy jar is just enough to pay for three
College degrees
And a rockstar
And a rockstar

I said
Mom I don't wanna go to school I just wanna be a rockstar
I'm not f*cked up from all the moves I just like the way my voice sounds in my car
Dad I don't wanna get a job I just wanna be a big shot
I had a dream or two of who I wanna be and I know it's not what you want
Cause I just wanna be a rockstar
I just wanna be a rockstar

I throw my pills away so I can be a rockstar
Milk my parent's split so I can be a rockstar
Push my friends away so I can be a rockstar
Call my pain a gain so I can be a rockstar

Cause I just wanna be a rockstar
Cause I just wanna be a rockstar
A rockstar
I wanna be a rockstar
