I'm Going To Be A Teenage Idol Lyrics - Don't Shoot Me (i'm Only The Piano Player) - Elton John

Well, there's slim times when my words won't rhyme 

And the hills I face are a long hard climb 

I just sit cross-legged with my old guitar 

It kind of makes me feel like a rock and roll star 

Well, it makes me laugh, Lord, it makes me cry 

And I think for once let me just get high 

Let me get electric, put a silk suit on 

Turn my old guitar into a tommy gun 

And root-toot-shoot myself to fame 

Every kid alive gonna know my name 

An overnight phenomenon like there's never been 

A motivated supersonic king of the scene

I'll be a teenage idol, just give me a break 

I'm gonna be a teenage idol no matter how long it takes 

You can't imagine what it means to me 

I'm gonna grab myself a place in history 

A teenage idol that's what I'm gonna be, yeah 

Well, life is short and the world is rough 

And if you're gonna boogie, boy, you got to be tough 

Nobody knows if I'm dead or alive 

I just drink myself to sleep each night 

And so I pray to the teenage god of rock 

If I make it big, let me stay on top 

You got to cut me loose from this one room dive 

Put me on the ladder, keep this boy alive 

And root-toot-shoot myself to fame 

Every kid alive gonna know my name 

An overnight phenomenon like there's never been 

A motivated supersonic king of the scene 

I'll be a teenage idol, just give me a break 

I'm gonna be a teenage idol no matter how long it takes 

You can't imagine what it means to me 

I'm gonna grab myself a place in history 

A teenage idol that's what I'm gonna be
