Star people Counting your money until your soul turns green Star people Counting the cost of your desire to be seen I do not count myself among you I may have been living in a dream It's just there seem so many of you Can't help but hope there's a difference between And if I live to be a hundred and one I will never understand what you are, honey? I'm looking for sympathy Just get me on nbc And where's the hell's my dumb ass pr? I said maybe your mama gave you up boy (it's the same old same old) I said maybe your daddy didn't love you enough girl (how much is enough) Star people Never forget your secret's safe with me Just look at all the wonderful people Trying to forget just who and what they have been Oh, it's a dream With a nightmare stuck in the middle Are you serious? I'm just curious Without all this attention You'd die I'd die We'd die (wouldn't we baby) And if I live to be a hundred and one I will never understand what you are (I'm talking to you) You're looking for sympathy from people who work to eat And they don't really seem to mind I said maybe your mama gave you up boy (it's the same old same old) I said maybe baby your daddy didn't love you enough girl How much is enough? How much is enough? How much is enough? Are you serious? I'm just curious Are you serious?
