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 that there seems so many of you
Can't help but hope there's a difference between you and me

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
Where's the hell's my dumb a__ PR?

Yeah, yeah

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 hey
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 (Ooh,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?

I'm just curious

Yeah more glycerine
Yeah let's go back to the days

Huh DJ (why do you wanna tell me that?)
Huh DJ (get yourself some Oprah cash)
Ooh baby

Do you really think you've got it so hard? (huh?)
Do you think it might do you some good to look around you
And decide what you might feel
If the pain you felt was real
Oh, tell me
Is that why you're a .... star?

Tell me
Now nothing comes for nothing, baby
That fame and fortune's heaven sent
And who gives a f___ about your problems, darling
'Cos you can pay the rent
You can pay

You can pay

Cry baby, cry baby

Baby , you're a star
Is that why you're a ....star?
Baby, you're a star
