Little Rock Star Lyrics - Little Honey - Lucinda Williams

It's clear you have a death wish 

And from what I hear, your latest dish 

Lives for you, and scares you half to death 

You bend over backwards to make a statement 

Hang from the rafters and lick the pavement 

Split your lip and barely catch your breath 

Your lovely eyes, they close like petals 

Your sweet surprise could win you medals 

You strut your stuff and fan your peacock feathers

Even if you fake it to get attention 

Whatever it'll take to get them to listen 

Piss on your designer boots and designer leathers 

[Chorus] 

Hey little rock star, what don't you see 

This is not all that it's cracked up to be 

And I can't say I blame you 

For throwing the towel in or buying more fame 

by cashing your chips in 

But with all of your talent, and so much to gain 

To toss it away like that would be such a shame 

Juvenile delinquent, misunderstood 

Peter Pan and Robin Hood 

Will you ever do the things you're afraid to do 

Photos 

Will you ever know happiness, little rock star 

Or is your death wish stronger than you are 

Will you go up in flames like the torches 

That are carried for you 

[Chorus] 

To toss it away like that would be such a shame
