lyrics

MERCURY Z:
As a lonely kid about fifteen
I buried my nose in a magazine
And there was a picture of the one who came to save me.
With a burning guitar and a wall of sound
He melted teenage frustrations down
And never have I lost the gift he gave me.

Boy-O, Boy-O, everyone’s favorite Rock Star.
Boy-O, Boy-O, rock on Boy rock on.

BECKY:
As a girl both shy and overweight
I watched TV and stayed up late
And there on the screen I saw my fate before me.
In the warm and dark I’d close my eyes
Sail far away and fantasize
Til through my blindness from my lies he tore me.

MERCURY & BECKY:
Boy-O, Boy-O, everyone’s favorite Rock Star.
Boy-O, Boy-O, rock on Boy rock on.

MERCURY:
They don’t make Rock Stars like they used to

MERCURY & BECKY:
Or so my big brother said.
They just use MTV to trick you
Those days are gone, passed, and dead.

So we dance until our feet get sore
We wear out every beer soaked floor
We pound on every backstage door to meet you.
Ten flying fingers on your hands
And siren singers and funky bands
But it’s only all us faithful fans complete you.

CAST:
Boy-O, Boy-O, everyone’s favorite Rock Star.
Boy-O, Boy-O, rock on Boy rock on.
Boy-O, Boy-O, everyone’s favorite Rock Star.
Boy-O, Boy-O, everyone’s favorite Rock Star.
Rock on, rock on,
Rock on, rock on.
