Fame, makes a man take things over 
Fame, lets him loose, hard to swallow
Fame, puts you there where things are hollow 

Fame 

Fame, it's not your brain, it's just the flame 
That burns your change to keep you insane

Fame 

Fame, what you like is in the limo 
Fame, what you get is no tomorrow 
Fame, what you need you have to borrow 

Fame 

Fame, "Nien! It's mine!" is just his line 
To bind your time, it drives you to, crime 

Fame 

Could it be the best, could it be? 
Really be, really, babe? 
Could it be, my babe, could it, babe? 
Really, really?

Is it any wonder I reject you first? 
Fame, fame, fame, fame
Is it any wonder you are too cool to fool 

Fame 

Fame, bully for you, chilly for me 
Got to get a rain check on pain

Fame 

Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame 
Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame
Fame, fame, fame 

Fame 

What's your name? 

(whispered) 
Feeling so gay, feeling gay
