Guitar Hero Hero (Beating Guitar Hero Doesn't Make You Slash)

Lyrics by MC Lars (with help from Mike Russo on the bridge) Music by MC Lars, Terrible D, Daniel Dart, and Paul Gilbert Walking down the hall all the fifth graders swoon Autograph line every day in homeroom On the playground all the kids like to point and whisper “Check his calloused guitar-button blisters” I’m a fourth grade celebrity Plastic axe on my back and a Dragonforce T My teachers know that I’m the man A walking, talking ten-year-old-brand Pepsi offered me mad Gs to drink Sobe exclusively Guitar Hero, it’s my song, flip the switch and then it’s on CHORUS Well I’m starting up my Wii and all my fans are in the stands I would invite my parents but they’ll never understand I’ve got a reputation for the levels that I beat I’m a Guitar Hero hero, hey that’s me They say Robert Johnson sold his soul to the Devil I can beat “Through the Fire and Flames” on expert level While Slash rocks the Strip up and down LA I push multi-colored buttons on a stick all day Dimebag brought the dope harmonics My five buttons are electronic Clapton spilt his heart on “Layla” I go (click click click) playa Hendrix lit his Strat on fire Generations were inspired One day my songs could do the same If I weren’t so addicted to this game! CHORUS I’m a player, I’m a hero, I’m your rock star little man If I don’t do my homework will my teachers understand? Can’t really strum a note and every gig I rock for free I’m a Guitar Hero hero, hey that’s me Beating Call of Duty doesn’t mean your aim is good Beating Wii Golf doesn’t make you Tiger Woods Beating Apples to Apples doesn’t make you a farmer Watching UFC won’t make you any harder Friends on Myspace won’t make you a musician Beating Operation doesn’t make you a physician Watching CSI doesn’t make you a detective Playing Mario Paint doesn’t mean you have perspective Beating Gears of War doesn’t make you Wintson Churchill Quoting 90′s sitcoms doesn’t make you Steve Urkel Grand Theft Auto doesn’t make you a player Playing Sim City doesn’t make you a mayor Beating Rock Band doesn’t mean you rock Beating Tony Hawk doesn’t make you Tony Hawk American Idol won’t make you a star Beating Guitar Hero doesn’t mean you play guitar Play me some guitar Now play me some guitar Play me some guitar Paul Gilbert on guitar! Let’s go! CHORUS Well I know my mom will ground me if I play again all night When I step into the zone I always rock it right My eyes are getting bloodshot as my fingers start to bleed I’m a Guitar Hero hero I’m gamer, I’m an addict, guitar strummer, I’m a fan One day I’ll tour the country in my drummer’s beat-up van But until I learn to play I’ll sit in front of my TV I’m a Guitar Hero hero I’m a Guitar Hero hero I’m a Guitar Hero hero Hey that’s me! And that’s me! And that’s you! Well golly gee! Yeah!
