He used to be a major player on the silverscreen
He made the girls scream
He was a vision in tan leather
I bought the songs that showed the measure of his fame, then he took the blame
Now his image is forever tarnished by allegations in the press, he vanished
He was a seventies, seventies superstar, drives a fast car
Seventies superstar
A seventies seventies superstar
Jumping sand dunes in his buggy, get the lowdown jive from huggy
In the bar he played the wah wah
He was a vision in tan leather
I bought the songs that showed the measure of his fame, then he took the blame
It's so strange to meet your childhood hero
Sometimes you can't believe that they were ever real
He was a seventies, seventies superstar, propping up the bar
Seventies seventies superstar, drives a fast car
Seventies superstar, he said we'd go far
A seventies seventies superstar
I turned around again, he'd left the bar
He was running down the backstairs and jumping on his car
It's so strange to meet your childhood hero
Sometimes you can't believe that they were ever real
He was a seventies, seventies superstar, drives a fast car
Seventies superstar
A heavenly seventies superstar
