Superstar Songtext
von Franck Carducci

Born and raised inside a music club in Hollywood
Treated as a king in the entire neighborhood
Second to none of the guitar players
Arion was driving his convertible car
With the floating curly long hair of a superstar
Showing off in his rock ′n' roll band

Lovely Dolly hurried off to school under the storm
She was just too shy to be the queen of the prom
Oh but she knew there was still magic in the air

Ever since I was a child
You were always by my side
Even though you looked so wild
And freedom was your pride
Now the years have passed me by
And I′ve been listening from behind
To the music of your soul
'Cause it will always sooth my mind


One day after a successful Sicilian tour
Arion was on the boat that would take him back home
He thought he heard a strange noise at his cabin door
He didn't notice the shadows moving in
... Too late!
... It was much too late!

Then he felt his body collapse on the floor
Suddenly there was a blackout
It all went dark
Lifeless for a long and lonely, lonely, lonely time
And when he finally woke up his body was tied
And he wondered why
He wondered why
He wondered why ...

A gang of chicks were standing still, surrounding him
With fire in their eyes and smiling faces
But these sexy pirates were loaded with heavy weapons
They were closing in when they began to shout:
"WE WANT YOUR MONEY, GIVE US THE MONEY"
"WE WANT YOUR MONEY, GIVE US THE MONEY"
"WE WANT YOUR MONEY, GIVE US THE MONEY"
"WE WANT YOUR MONEY, GIVE US THE MONEY"


And when they finally found what they were looking for
They were going to throw him overboard
But Arion′s last will was to sing and play his final song
So they agreed to grant him this little reward
And for one last time
He was allowed to shine
He was allowed to shine ...

Help me ...
Somebody help me!
Somebody help me!
Somebody help me!

Help me ...
Somebody help me!
Somebody help me!
Somebody help!

In this sea of darkness
With the horizon all around
In this ocean of loneliness
Where I am soon going to drown
The wind blowing through my flooded ears
Water leaking into my mouth ajar
Ripples splashing in my teary eyes
A last glimpse of endless starry skies
How long could I resist?
How deep will I end up?
That mighty force from underneath
Sucking me into this underworld
I feel my body sinking low
The abyss swallowing me up and dragging me down
A sudden beholding of a light glow
Vision of a lifeboat passing by
She quickly grabs my hands and pulls me firmly in
And lies me safely down to rest
But all I need is to dive into the eyes that saved my skin
And hold her close against my chest
Dolly my love ...
