Mmmmm, what would you do
Ha-ha-ha, well
We all wanna be famous
We all wanna be known
Who wouldn't mind
Their name in lights
To be recognized
Everywhere you go
Talk of the town or the city
The rumor of every street
The Daily News is all about you
Get your Limo ride
To your Penthouse suite
Well oo-oo-oo
That's what you want
What you gonna trade for it
The road up to the top
Is lined with good intent
So what would you do
For fortune and fame
Would you give your soul
Would you change your name
When it comes around
Well let me tell you
You can bet my mama
Didn't raise, no fool
You can't be my joker
They said you can't
Play with my cards
Give me your hand
Little music man
We'll do all we can
To make you a big big star
The talk of the town
Of the city, baby
Rumor of every street
And in that price
You'll sign here twice
There's a devil outside
For you and me
Well oo-oo-oo
That's what you want
What you gonna trade for it
The road up to the top
Is lined with hell to pay
Oh, yeah
So what would you do
For fortune and fame
Would you give your soul
Would you change your name
When it comes around
Well let me tell you
You can bet my mama
Didn't raise, no fool
So now, I lay me
Me down to sleep
And I pray the Lord
My soul to keep
But if I'm not famous
Before I wake
I pray the Lord
My soul to take, oh
So what would you do
For fortune and fame
Would you give your soul
Would you change your name
Ha ha
So what would you do
For fortune and fame
Would you give your soul
Would you change your name
When it comes around
Well let me tell you
You can bet my mama
And your bottom dollar
Well I ain't that stupid
Ain't that dumb
I don't need them
To get what I want
But if it comes around
Well let me tell you
You can bet my mama
Didn't raise, no fool
Ha-ha, no fool
Didn't raise no fool
You can bet my mama
Didn't raise, no fool
