Paroles
They'll be making sure you stay amused
They'll fill you up with drugs and booze
Maybe you'll make the evening news
And when you're tripping over your dreams
They'll keep you down by any means
By the end of the night you'll be stifling your screams
Since you became a VIPerson
It's like your problems have all worsened
Your paranoia casts aspersions
On the truths you know
And they'll just put you in that spotlight
And hope that you'll do alright
Or maybe not
So why d'ya wanna go and put stars in their eyes?
Now why d'ya wanna go and put stars in their eyes?
So why d'ya wanna go and put stars in their eyes?
Now why d'ya wanna go and put stars in their eyes?
Remember they said you'd show them all
Emphasise the rise but not the fall
And now you're playing a shopping mall
Your mum and dad they can't believe
What you appear to have achieved
While the rest of these users
Are just laughing in their sleep
Since you became a VIPerson
It's like your problems have all worsened
Your paranoia casts aspersions
On the truths you know
And now the tabloids use your face
To document your fall from grace
And then they'll tell you that that's just the way it goes
Well that's just the way it goes
Now why d'ya wanna go and put stars in their eyes?
It's the same old story, well they just didn't realise
And it's a long way to come
From a Dog and Duck karaoke machine
And Saturday night's drunken dreams
Now why d'ya wanna go and put stars in their eyes?
It's the same old story, well they just didn't realise
And it's a long way to come
From your private bedroom dance routines
And Saturday night's drunken dreams
Now why d'ya wanna go and put stars in their eyes?
So why d'ya wanna go and put stars in their eyes?
Now why d'ya wanna go and put stars in their eyes?
So why d'ya wanna go and put stars in their eyes?
Now why d'ya wanna go and put stars in their eyes?
It's the same old story, well they just didn't realise
And it's a long way to come
From a Dog and Duck karaoke machine
And Saturday night's drunken dreams
Behind a steel barrier, sequins and glitter
Five inch heels still knee deep in the litter
Each of them a bitter bullshitter
Wrapped up in the cloak of fake glamour
Getting lost in the clamour
With footprints of fool's gold
And diamonds across the grips on their one-off plimsoles
So little time for these one-off arseholes
Rigor mortis Ken and Barbie dolls
A pair of big shades and a push-up bra
It's such a short gap between the gutter and stars
But you've come a long way from the place that you started
So why d'ya wanna go and get so downhearted?
Welcome to the kingdom of the blagger
Uncut in your nose, clean coat in your bladder
A whole lot happier, a whole lot sadder
Used to be satisfied, now you feel like Mick Jagger
Now why d'ya wanna go and put stars in their eyes?
It's the same old story, well they just didn't realise
And it's a long way to come
From a Dog and Duck karaoke machine
And Saturday night's drunken dreams
Now why d'ya wanna go and put stars in their eyes?
It's the same old story, well they just didn't realise
And it's a long way to come
From your private bedroom dance routines
And Saturday night's drunken dreams
