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 
and 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 the spotlight 
And hope that you'll do alright
Or maybe not 

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes? 
Why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes? 
So why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes? 
Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes? 
Starz 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 sleeves 

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 
That's just the way it goes 

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes? 
It's the same old story well they just didn't realise 
And it's a long way to come from the dog and duck karaoke machine 
And Saturday night's drunken dreams 

Now why do you wanna go and put starz 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 do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes? 
Why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes? 
So why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes? 
Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes? 
Starz in their eyes? 

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes? 
It's the same old story well they just didn't realise 
And it's a long way to come from the dog and duck karaoke machine 
And Saturday night's drunken dreams 

(When I grow up im going to be famous) 

Behind the steel barrier and sequence 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 camera 
Well footprints are fools gold, diamonds crusts on their one off plimsolls 
So little time for these one off arseholes 
Rigour 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, 
That you've come a long way from the place that you started 
So why'd you wanna go and get so down hearted 

Welcome to the kingdom of the blagger 
Uncutting you nose clean, coating you bladder 
A whole lot happier a whole lot sadder, 
Used to be satisfied but now you feel like Mick Jagger, 

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes? 
It's the same old story well they just didn't realise 
And it's a long way to come from the dog and duck karaoke machine 
And Saturday night's drunken dreams 

Now why do you wanna go and put starz 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
