fair warning (mastered November 12, 2000)
(Bachman/Cummings)
Well Ive been trying for ages
And it looks like its all in vain
And if things dont start looking up pretty soon
Im going home.
Well the folks back home, they wonder where
Ive been
And theyre looking pretty good to me now
So if youre thinking of bright lights and fame
Stay at home.
For theres managers and booking agents
Out for what they can get
And each one says hes your friend
But theres not one of them there but for what he can get out of it
In the end.
So if youre thinking of going on the stage
Put down your guitar, stay in school
Take advantage of your age.
Take it from me,
Ive been there and
Ive come back.
Dont be a star.
