Lyrics Steve Harley

Steve Harley

Star For A Week

1. Anxious mother pleads come home dino

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

His dreams are in his motorcycle, swears he's gonna sort 'em out

His going barefoot, like the man with no name

Gonna break into a bank, if he surrended imagine the shame

R: 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

2. Across the country he's been stealing cars

Playing cat and mouse like a hero on d-day

Shoeless boy this shotgun baby

Running from the law likes 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

R:

3. Everywhere he reads give us dino

We wanna know whats this death wish you're talking about

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

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

I wanna steal, I wanna give, I wanna die, I wanna live

I wanna find my own identity like any other teenage kid

R: (2x)
