| When I was little I wanted to be a rockstar
|
| But I thought playing guitar would be rock hard
|
| Taught myself a couple of chords but never got far
|
| So instead I picked a mic up and dropped bars
|
| And I’ve done alright, my rhymes are more tight
|
| Than the average, I tell you that isn’t a pork pie
|
| But please give me a minute, let me be forthright
|
| I wish I’d had the foresight to give my fingers more time
|
| Instead I let them get bored, on the fretboard
|
| But now I’ve found a course, and got it cracked like a fault line
|
| I learnt less in all my life than in the last fortnight
|
| Propelled my elevation level as if it was cordite
|
| Now I can hack at my axe, and rock it all night
|
| If rock is a thrill ride, then Rocksmith’s your tour guide
|
| Of course I’ve still got to put the time into it
|
| But the fact is with practice, I know I can do it
|
| Now I’m a Rocksmith
|
| I learned a lot quick
|
| Never mind pressing buttons
|
| I know how to pluck strings
|
| Now I’m a Rocksmith
|
| I learned a lot quick
|
| I never dreamed
|
| I’d be able to play such things
|
| Unlike the Deftones, I was tone def
|
| Leppards never change their spots, I’m just a radiohead
|
| Music left me with an aching head, not a head rush
|
| Crimson red blush, less trust then Jeb Bush
|
| I’m not an early riser, could never rise against
|
| The procrastination, it was always I versus them
|
| I couldn’t find a muse, or iron out the kinks
|
| I could kiss goodbye to screaming females, I was jinxed
|
| Wanted to slay em ike I’m waving a katana
|
| Or magic wands, make a splashh, take them to Nirvana
|
| Play in my pyjamas, as heavy as a monster truck
|
| Never mind the who, what, why, no-one wants to suck
|
| The police in Boston aren’t even as tough as this
|
| RSI, callouses and blisters, I’ve suffered it
|
| But I’ll never stop playing guitar
|
| Until all that remains of my nails are scars
|
| Now I’m a Rocksmith
|
| I learned a lot quick
|
| Never mind pressing buttons
|
| I know how to pluck strings
|
| Now I’m a Rocksmith
|
| I learned a lot quick
|
| I never dreamed
|
| I’d be able to play such things |
