Famous For Nothing

Famous for Nothin’

A new sensation is sweeping up the nation
Everywhere you look on every TV station
It’ll just pinch a little, you might feel some penetration
Gotta be willing to sink to the occasion

We’ll shine it like a crystal, put it on a pedestal
No one needs to know where it came from
People Magazine will put it in their 100 Best
We’ll emty out our savings for a glimpse of a nickel

Have you heard
Have you heard
Everybody’s in
Have you heard
Have you heard
You can be famous, famous
Famous for nothin’
Famous for nothin’

Graveyards are rumbling from the spinning of the late
It used to be you had to do something to be considered great
Now the greats are gone, we’re on the lame train
Passengers are split between the voyeurs and the vain

Have you heard
Have you heard
Everybody’s in
Have you heard
Have you heard
You can be famous, famous
Famous for nothin’
Famous for nothin’

Out with the old kid, in with the new kid
Soul goes home with the highest bid
Your conscience got to ya, but you kept it well hid
You can get off your knees now, your fifteen’s been done did

Have you heard
Have you heard
Everybody’s in
Have you heard
Have you heard
You can be famous, famous
Famous for nothin’
Famous for nothin’
