You've made it
You're brilliant
And the world now knows it
You're a Rock Star!!!
Headlining the biggest venues now
A fresh-face for the corporate cash cow
A dimwit distraction for the crowds
We see.
All-Access Tabloid A-list s***
Marketing machine for the mass audience
Entourage in tow
No limits to excess
They say you've made it
They say you're brilliant
You think you're the s***
But you're just a two-bit Celebrity
You could make a difference in other lives
But your contract states that no one meet your eyes
Which are always fixed and focused on the prize
We see.
Caste system of red carpets and limousines
Status symbol furs/blood diamond rings
What a worthless waste of a human being
They say you've made it
They say you're brilliant
You think you're the s***
But you're just a useless Celebrity
But what it means
Celebrity
What it means is nothing
The world is falling apart around your bubble of conceit
p****** away your money to prove you're one of the elite
Complaints of paparrazi as you sulk behind your pose
The Nouveau Riche Rock Star in s*** designer clothes
But your celebrity bullshit will come to an end
As you lose your useless mansions and your user friends
This wasn't what you wanted when you dreamed of mega-fame
Too bad the record companies now own your c*** Name
It's what you do with your life
Not how many units you've sold
It's what you do with your life
Not how many Warhols you own
It's what you do with your life
Not that fans worship your name
It's what you do with your life
This world's no brighter for your fame
So we'll watch you spiral downward
As your Top-Chart hits dry up
While you drink away the loss of your pathetic kingdom
And maybe you'll realize what you could have done
But you're just another Rock Star come and gone
Just another Rock Star come and gone
They say you've lost it
We know you're bullshit
You wish you still had it
But you're just a worthless Celebrity
And what it means
Celebrity
What it means is nothing
You're brilliant
And the world now knows it
You're a Rock Star!!!
