Stardom In Acton 

Stardom in Acton that's all they got. 

Stardom in Acton that's all they got. 

Stardom in Acton that's all they got. 

Just like the grub that wriggles to the top of the mass 

I'm the first to get hooked 

Just like the stub of that long cigarette full of hash 

I'm the first to get booked. 

But I'm capable 

My loves inescapable 

Conquering lethargy 

I've got energy

Stardom-I want a hit 

Want my tan, want my cash, want my innocence 

Stardom-I want a script 

Want my band, want my stash, want omnipotence 

I'll go where the senescent soldier retires 

And shiver in south California 

Watching the storms and tangled wires 

And rivers that meet on the corner 

Like some prostitute 

Handing round the loot 

I am not ashamed 

I will stake a claim 

Stardom-born in a trunk 

Got my home, got my car, got stability 

Stardom-I'm Hollywood's son 

All alone don't admire anonymity 

Photos 

I'm so angry that you turned me on 

I didn't remain your friend for too long 

I'm so angry that you turned me on 

I didn't stay your friend for too long 

I'm so angry that you let me see 

My totally futile destiny 

I'm so angry-you interrupted my dream 

Now I know that the power rests in me. 

Stardom-I want a hit 

Want my tan, want my cash, want my innocence 

Stardom-I want a script 

Want my band, want my stash, want omnipotence 

Stardom-born in a trunk 

Got my home, got my car, got stability 

Stardom-I'm Hollywood's son 

All alone don't admire anonymity 

Stardom in Acton that's all they got. 

Stardom in Acton that's all they got. 

Stardom in Acton that's all they got 

Stardom in Acton that's all they got
