	Story Behind the Song A while back a friend of mine decided he wanted to pursue a career in music. With amazing diligence he managed to put together a band, some original tunes, an image, and merchandise to advertise it all. However, In his quest for fame and fortune he forgot to nurture one thing...skill. Recognizing the need for improvement he sought out professional instruction. After only a few lessons he realized...and I quote, "I don't so much wanna be a musician, I really just wanna be a Rock Star." WelI, I guess that's enough cuz he gigs way more than most "real" musicians I know. Lyrics Welcome to my world of plenty Party favors at the door Hope you thought to bring your pennies Silver's nice but won't grant more Dreams come true for all who enter Make a wish thy will be done In our fountains filled with copper Lie breeding hopes of everyone So you wanna be a Rock Star!?! And you feel you would go far You wanna drive fancy cars And frequent bars That screen their clientele So what about the small folk!?! The ones that branded you a joke They hide behind the smoke Of clever antecdotes On how they knew you when Watch the spiral dance of rainbows Feel the floor move up and down Stand real still but it will not slow And predators move to surround Before you've realized what's happened The pounce has turned into a race Don't look back indulge in the trend You're the one who's being chased
