They'll be making sure you stay amused They'll fill you up with drugs and booze Maybe you'll make the evening news
And when you're tripping over your dreams They'll keep you down by any means By the end of the night you'll be stifling your screams
Since you became a VI-Person It's like your problems have all worsened Your paranoia casts aspersions On the truths you know
And they'll just put you in a spotlight And hoping you'll do alright Or maybe not
Now why'd you wanna go and put starz in their eyes Why'd you wanna go and put starz in their eyes So why'd you wanna go and put starz in their eyes Now why'd you wanna go and put starz in their eyes Starz in their eyes
Remember they said you'd show them all Emphasize the rise but not the fall And now you're playing a shopping mall
Your mum and dad they can't believe What you appear to have achieved While the rest of these users are just laughing in their sleeves
Since you became a VI-Person It's like your problems have all worsened Your paranoia casts aspersions On the truths you know
And now the tabloids use your face To document your fall from grace And then they'll tell you that that's just the way it goes That's just the way it goes
Now why'd you wanna go and put starz in their eyes It's the same old story well they just didn't realize And it's a long way to come from the dog and duck karaoke machine And saturday night's drunken dreams
Now why'd you wanna go and put starz in their eyes It's the same old story, well they just didn't realize And it's a long way to come from your private bedroom dance routines And saturday night's drunken dreams
Now why'd you wanna go and put starz in their eyes Why'd you wanna go and put starz in their eyes So why'd you wanna go and put starz in their eyes Now why'd you wanna go and put starz in their eyes Starz in their eyes
Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes? It's the same old story well they just didn't realize And it's a long way to come from the dog and duck karaoke machine And saturday night's drunken dreams
(When I grow up I'm going to be famous)
Behind the steel barrier and sequence and glitter Five inch heels still knee deep in the litter Each of them a bitter bullshitter, Wrapped up in the cloak of fake glamour, getting lost in the camera Well footprints are fools gold, diamonds crusts on their one off plimsolls So little time for these one off arseholes Rigor mortis Ken and Barbie dolls A pair of big shades and a push up bra It's such a short gap between the gutter and stars That you've come a long way from the place that you started So why'd you wanna go and get so down hearted
Welcome to the kingdom of the blagger Uncutting you nose clean, coating you bladder A whole lot happier a whole lot sadder Used to be satisfied but now you feel like Mick Jagger
Now why'd you wanna go and put starz in their eyes It's the same old story, well they just didn't realize And it's a long way to come from the dog and duck karaoke machine And saturday night's drunken dreams
Now why'd you wanna go and put starz in their eyes It's the same old story, well they just didn't realize And it's a long way to come from your private bedroom dance routines And saturday night's drunken dreams
