Fame Lyrics - Singles - Stiltskin

Hello, my name is Maria, I'm 22 years old, 

my hobbies are dancing and singing, 

my ambition is to help people who are less fortunate than myself 

and to make a shit lot of cash 

Nothing ever comes easy in this life 

You never know what they are really thinking 

Try hard to pretend its ok 

You get down and just end up drinking 

And so you look to the Gods for help 

And try to make sense from it all 

Just breathe easy and believe me 

Nothing worthwhile ever comes easy 

You're in the machine now 

Fame, fame the people know your name 

It isn't all that it's cracked up to be 

I'll say it again 

Fame, fame welcome to the machine 

You got exactly what they wanted for you 

You see all that talentless fuckers on TV 

And a judge with suit from Armani 

Sits back with his words of wisdom 

As the TV ratings go through the ceiling 

And all the people at home with there shallow lives 

Looking to be part of something 

Just entertain me nice and easy 

Take my extremely dull life and free me 

I'm living the dream 

Fame, fame the people know your name 

It isn't all that it's cracked up to be 

I'll say it again 

Fame, fame welcome to the machine 

You got exactly what they wanted for you 

I know there's no point in saying this 

It's maybe even a little bit dangerous 

Be aware that the shareholders own you 

They can bounce you around if they want to 

It's good that they fight for survival 

At least until there's a Beatles revival 

Looks like those days have gone 

If the numbers don't add up 

It must be wrong 

RIGHT? QUITE RIGHT! 

Oh my God thank you for making my dream a reality, 

thank you so much, thank you, I'm so happy 

Fame, fame the people know your name 

It isn't all that it's cracked up to be 

I'll say it again 

Fame, fame welcome to the machine 

You got exactly what they wanted for you 

Fame, fame 

Fame, fame 

Fame, fame welcome to the machine 

You got exactly what they wanted for you 

I'm so happy, thank you, you guys are great
