I Wanna Be Somebody

You say you don't want to run and hide

A face that no one knows

And everyone you meet, you're gonna show

You're nobody's slave, nobody's chains are holdin' you

You hold your fist up high,

And rule the zoo



Oh, you just got to be

Up high where the whole world's watchin' me

Cause I, I got the guts to be somebody to cry out



I want to be somebody,

Be somebody soon

I want to be somebody 

Be somebody too



You say you don't want to starve 

Or take the table crumbs that fall

You don't want to beg or plead at all

You don't want no nine to five

Your fingers to the bone

You don't want the rock piles bloody stones



Oh, you just got to be 

Up high where the whole world's watchin' me

Cause I , I got the guts to be somebody to cry out



I want to be somebody,

Be somebody soon

I want to be somebody

Be somebody too



I want shiny cars and dirty money

Lots of rock and roll

I will live in fame and die in flames

I'm never getting old



I want to be somebody,

Be somebody soon

I want to be somebody 

Be somebody too



I gonna be somebody

I gonna be somebody
