Dead Celebrity Status - They Will Love You lyrics

You wanna be a dead superstar and live large Dead Celeb came to raise the bar Up from when Hendrix played guitar, Right down to your phony a** A&R. John Lennon dies, the world is stunned What if Mark Chapman didn't shoot that gun The same one who sang give 'give peace a chance' Was the same one who died from violent hands So should we all take a silent stance So celebrities are targets from irate fans 'Cuz I know something smells like teen spirit Something smells like teen spirit And if someone yells can we hear it Or we gotta be dead for you to listen to the lyrics. Wake up from that sleepy trance 'Cuz tonight, even the dead will dance. They will love you when you're dead It don't matter who you are Just as long as you can be A dead super, superstar. They will love you when you're dead It don't matter who you are Just as long as you can be A dead super, superstar. They will love you when you're dead We are all stars in the filthy sky But they only love you when you die Fame is a game that will eat you alive While 99 Red Balloons go by Throw me in a coffin, Andy Kaufmann Make a legend like Janis Joplin Play punk rock like Johnny Rotten Success is d**h, the 2Pac option. Guns on my head, die for this, Or I'd shoot my way up the billboard charts Now I got a number one song, They love it when you're dead and gone. Fame is an illusion, a magic trick And I'm not a Chris Angel advocate. So run, run for the hills Fall, fall from the sky Do they really love you when you die, die They will love you when you're dead It don't matter who you are Just as long as you can be A dead super, superstar. They will love you when you're dead It don't matter who you are Just as long as you can be A dead super, superstar. We are, shameless We are, dead famous We are, faithless We have finally made it We are, shameless We are, dead famous We are, faithless We have finally made it They will love you when you're dead It don't matter who you are Just as long as you can be A dead super, superstar. They will love you when you're dead It don't matter who you are Just as long as you can be A dead super, superstar. They will love you when you're dead
