If you are what you say you are, a superstar Then have no fear, the camera's here And the microphone's And they wanna know oh, oh, oh, oh Yeah, uh, a fresh cool young Lu Tryna' catch his microphone check two, one, two Wanna' believe my own hype but it's too untrue The world brought me to my knees, what have you brung you? Did you improve on the design? Did you do somethin' new? Well ya' name ain't on the guest list, who brung you? You, the more famous person you come through And the s**y lady next to you, you come too And then it hit me, standin' outside of heaven Waitin' for God to come and get me, I'm too uncouth Unschooled to the rules and too gum shoe Too much of a new comer and too uncool Like Shadow and Lavelle, I battle with it well Though I need holiday like lady who sung, "Blue" Go back, whatever you did you undo Heavy as heaven, the devil on me, two ton's too If you are what you say you are, a superstar Then have no fear, the camera's here And the microphone's And they wanna know oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah And you better wear your shades The spotlights here, can burn holes through the stage Down to the basement, pa** the Indian graves Where the dinosaurs laid And out through China, nearly misses airliners Magnified times five, 'less it's pointed at the rhymer Ricochets off the moon and sets the forest ablaze
