I'll Never Be
Striving for Stardom: A Tale of Unfulfilled Dreams
Lyrics
Everybody's lookin' at me
Feeling the attention of others directed towards the speaker.
Thought I saw my face on MTV
Imagining seeing one's own face on MTV, a symbol of fame and recognition.
Or a magazine that she won't read, stole
Desiring to be featured in a magazine that someone special reads.
Her heart but it's not my fault, lookin' at
Claiming unintentional responsibility for stealing someone's heart.
My picture she forgot about her boyfriend, yea
Noticing that despite the attention, the person is forgetting about their boyfriend.
I'll never be, a rock and roll star
Expressing the realization that the speaker will not become a rock and roll star.
I'll never be, anything, anything at all
Reiterating the acknowledgment that the speaker won't become anything significant.
Drives me crazy, can't get away
Feeling overwhelmed or frustrated, struggling to escape the situation.
Somebody tell me, when do we get paid?
Questioning when the speaker will start earning for their efforts.
Everybody's lookin' at me
Experiencing continued attention from others.
Thought by now I'd be on MTV
Anticipating being featured on MTV or in popular magazines.
Or a magazine like seventeen or rolling stone
Desiring recognition in well-known magazines like Seventeen or Rolling Stone.
And I won't be alone with your
Not wanting to be alone, seeking companionship along with fame.
Money in my pocket and face on your T-shirt yeah
Imagining financial success with money in the pocket and fame on T-shirts.
I'll never be, a rock and roll star
Reaffirming the speaker's acknowledgment that they won't become a rock and roll star.
I'll never be, anything, anything at all
Reiterating the acknowledgment that the speaker won't become anything significant.
Drives me crazy, can't get away
Expressing frustration and the inability to escape the situation.
But I try and I try and I try and I try
Emphasizing the speaker's persistent efforts despite challenges.
Every day
Highlighting the daily struggle and commitment to achieving fame.
Every day
Repeating the sentiment of daily struggle and effort.
Said I'll never be, a rock and roll star
Affirming the realization that the speaker won't become a rock and roll star.
I'll never be, anything, anything at all
Reiterating the acknowledgment that the speaker won't become anything significant.
