Alan G. - Who Wants To Be A Popstar? Lyrics
Folks always tellin’ me, on the web you’ll find the keyTry social networking, so we all can seeYou can be a big star, flash your online business cardThey’ll see you near and far, practically for freeBut I don’t know why people try toLive just like an open bookCallin’ out their nasty secretsJust to make you look?Who wants to be a popstar?Who wants to be famous?Who wants to be on display all night and dayWith cameras flashin’ brightWho wants to hog the spotlightWearin’ clothes that are too tightYou can buy off the rack, and stay on trackTo live an honest lifeWho wants to be a popstar?Oh oh, it just ain’t rightFolks always tellin’ me, get yourself up on TVLive your “idol” fantasies, Be a superstarIt’s the new reality, shows about just you and mePeople watch you eat an’ sleep, Fame’s no longer hardMakes me mad when people run theirMouths so loud into their cellphonesEveryone talkin’, no one listnin’To their borin’ livesWho wants to be a popstar?Who wants to be famous?Who wants to be on display, all night and dayYour scandals brought to lightWho wants to have the right noseJust for strikin’ the right poseWho says you can’t have enough of useless stuffJust have an honest lifeWho wants to be a popstar?It just ain’t rightI don’t see why people need toAll compete for fame and fortuneTellin’ stories overstuffed with doggone silly liesBut the crazy details make them stars in their own mindsWho wants to be a popstar?Who wants to be famous?Who wants to be on display all night and dayWith cameras flashin’ brightWho wants to hog the spotlightWearin’ clothes that are too tightYou can buy off the rack, and stay on trackTo live an honest lifeWho wants to be a popstar?Who wants to be famous?Who wants to be on display, all night and dayYour scandals brought to lightWho wants to have the right noseJust for strikin’ the right poseWho says you can’t have enough of useless stuffJust have an honest lifeWho wants to be a popstar?Oh! It just ain’t right
