Another birthday wish has come and gone In line at Enterprise Rent-A-Car What news of the famous? Why do I read? I can't escape this jealousy I don't wanna be a spectator on the screen I wanna know how it feels inside the ring Pressure on my shoulders to take a swing 'Cause it all depends on me So please give me a character to play Tell me the lines I'm supposed to say It's not enough to be myself Turn me into someone else 'Cause while I'm up here on this stage I need a mask to hide my face Will you direct me, let me shine? I want the starring role this time Why do my heroes always compromise? I never wanna lose the light behind my eyes Are we so caught up in who's the goat? I wanna grab 'em by the throat Bite down, drink the marrow from their bones SongtexteI can't bare to survive on other people's crumbs How am I ever gonna win sitting on my thumbs? My time has gotta come So please give me a character to play Tell me the lines I'm supposed to say It's not enough to be myself Can you make me someone else? 'Cause while I'm up here on this stage I need a mask to hide my face Will you direct me, let me shine? I want a starring role this time This time, this time I want the starring role this time This time, this time Starring role this time This time, this time Want the starring role this time This time, this time So please give me a character to play Tell me the lines I'm supposed to say It's not enough to be myself Turn me into someone else 'Cause while I'm up here on this stage I need a mask to hide my face Will you direct me, let me shine? I want the starring role this time Aus Songtexte Mania
