I stand here waiting For you to bang the gong To crash the critic saying Is it right or is it wrong? If only fame had in, I’d be Baby, could I bare? Being away from you I found that they put it in here
I live for the applause, applause, applause I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me The applause, applause, applause
Give me that thing I love (I’ll turn turn the lights out) Put your hands up, make ‘em touch (Make it real loud)
Give me that thing I love (I’ll turn turn the lights out) Put your hands up, make ‘em touch (Make it real loud)
I overheard your theory ‘Nostalgia’s for geeks!’ I guess sir, if you say so Some of us just like to read One second I’m the kuntz Then, suddenly, the kuntz is me Pop culture was in art, now Art’s in pop culture, in me
I live for the applause, applause, applause I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me The applause, applause, applause
Give me that thing I love (I’ll turn turn the lights out) Put your hands up, make ‘em touch (Make it real loud)
Give me that thing I love (I’ll turn turn the lights out) Put your hands up, make ‘em touch (Make it real loud)
(Ooh) Touch, touch (x2) Ooh ooh ooh ooh (x4)
I live for the applause, applause, applause I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me The applause, applause, applause
Give me that thing I love (I’ll turn turn the lights out) Put your hands up, make ‘em touch (Make it real loud)
