Cat Stevens - (i Never Wanted) To Be A Star

I was seventeen, ou were working for

Matthew and son,

(the) beatles me the queen, and i wrote

I'm gonna get me a gun, yeah, yeah

It was like a dream in the star machine,

Oh, no, izitso, izitso?

I never wanted to be a star, i never wanted

To travel far

I only wanted a little bit of love

So i could put a little love in my heart

I never wanted to be la-de-da, go to parties

'avec le bourgeois'

I only wanted to sing my song well,

So i could ring a small bell in your heart

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah



I was on the road, sleeping between lorry

Lights, oh no

Stone-drunk and cold, heading into a bad

Night, yeah, yeah

Just another bean in the star machine, hi ho,

Here i go, here i go



I never wanted to be a star buy my mum a

Ferrari car

I only wanted to run my own race,

So i could win a small place in your heart

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah



Nature found a way, it picked me up off the

Dark side, yeah, yeah

Showed me another day, it made me sing

'i think i see the light'

Not another bean in the star machine, oh no,

This time i won't go

I never wanted to be a star, i never wanted to travel far

I only wanted a little bit of love

So i could put a little love in my heart.
