Lyrics
Rock 'n' Roller the games you play
High flyer see your names in lights
Temporarily social suicide
Oh don't you tell me it's rough
At the top you get the cream of the crop
Image seekers they're unreal to real
This week breaker
Well next week who knows
Oh don't you tell me it's rough
Oh don't you tell me it's tough
Star
That's what they call you
How long you've waited to get where you are
Star
That's what you wanted
This week hot shot. a video star:
Rock 'n' Roller inventing in your head
You cracked it once and you can do it again
Who knows, who cares at where you're coming from
Oh don't you tell me it's rough
Just a loner out there on your own
Don't let anyone get close or near
Imagine that. that you believe all you read
Oh don't you tell me it's rough
Oh don't you tell me it's tough
Star
That's what they call you
How long you've waited to get where you are
Star
That's what you wanted
This week hot shot, a video star
They can build you up
And they can break you down
With just the right words
I know they're heavy
Now just how many
More like you are trying, trying
Star
That's what they call you
How long you've waited to get where you are
Star
That's what you wanted
This week hot shot, a video star
Star
That's what they call you
How long you've waited to get where you are
Star
That's what you wanted
This week hot shot, a video star
Star
Star

I’m the young girl in the video and I’m now 56 years old! I will never forget just how truly beautiful Kiki Dee was to me as a starstruck teenager when I met her, she insisted I shared her space to get ready when they said I’d not be allocated a changing area and Id have to use the toilets,she was so kind to me,I hardly spoke from shyness and I must have seemed a little rude looking back 😂Great memories for me to have ❤thank you Kiki xxx

My mother in the early 80s used to be a hairdresser in London with her own salon and I remember this song and Abba playing on the radio. My mother passed away 9th November 2018 and this brings back lovely memories and a tear to my eye when I hear it. God Bless everyone and wish you well.

Certainly you have had an amazing career. You’re brighter than a star far away from the noisy troublesome world 💫

@scooby1992 2 года назад

I agree and the duet with Elton is probably the song she is best known for . I love this song as well . Last week I watched the 1980 movie Stir Crazy with Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor and to my surprise Kiki sings the closing song .

This takes me back to being in hospital with a broken leg. I just remember the cleaners coming on the ward and putting on hospital radio and this song came on. I wasn't sure who it was by, so my goal for that day was to find the singer. Obviously I succeeded, that's how I'm here!

@jubileebaby9787 5 месяцев назад

It was used as the theme to a late-1980s revival of Opportunity Knocks on the BBC hosted by Bob Monkhouse, and later by previous winner Les Dawson. New Faces was a similar format show but was broadcast by ITV.
