Fame makes a fool out of anyone Fame takes you back to the golden childhood Fame makes you think that you're having fun Fame the game Get on the plane and Get off into the limousine To the early morning show Everyday routine Make up fake up get a manicure Five minute autographs, grab a picture, yes or no All the same answers to the same questions Create a scandal with your reaction What's that you say Take it or leave it Paparazzi wanna see you bleeding [Chorus] Late suit days, hair extensions Botox faux-forced interventions Nude job, b**b job, all nouveau It ain't what, but who you know Uncalled perjury, cosmetic surgery Dirty secrets frame your glory It'll get the cover story [Chorus] Everybody wanna be a star It's all about who they think you are Pulling up in a crazy car The front door is your garage Everywhere en entourage Play like you've been living large Someone got your credit cards Lend me your blah blah blah Be careful Be careful what you wish for Since I was a child of three I'd watch old movies on the silver screen Kate Bette and Marilyn were the reigning queens (Do you wanna be a star?) I know if I can make it out Out of this sleepy town then I could go real far I could I'd really work so hard And I could do it and do it and do it 'til I become a star [Chorus] Miami, London, Paris in a week Lying in private, catching up sleep Celebrity parties, politic profits Rock'n' roll bullyboys walk the red carpet Getting in VIP through the velvet rope Shake hands, photograph and you gotta go Little black book pools with the CEO Smile and tell'em what they wanna know And tell'em what they wanna know Be careful Be careful what you wish for [Chorus] Everybody wanna be a star It's all about who they think you are Pulling up in a crazy car The front door is your garage Everywhere an entourage Play like you've been living large Someone got your credit cards Lend me your blah blah blah
