Ahhh see
Right see the thing that's got it all f___ed up now is camera-phones
How the hell am I supposed to be able to do a line in front of complete strangers
When I know they've all got cameras?

[Chorus]
When you're a famous boy
It gets really easy to get girls
It's all so easy you get a bit spoilt
So when you try to pull a girl
Who is also famous too
It feels just like when you wasn't famous

The celebrity pages in papers don't tell tales that are always to the line of the truth
It's til a line at which most likely you'll have the time, or enough finance to sue
Which is why it's so frightening buying papers in the morning fearing the next Mike Skinner scoop
Cos I used to believe what I read, so now I know that others will believe that it's true

But I realised, with you the truth could be, a whole lot worse than the flack
My whole life I never thought I'd see, a pop star smoke crack
And I must admit I was quite shocked, with that thing you did with me on my back
But, outside in the lobby, I shouldn't have laughed when you slapped that man

[Chorus]
When you're a famous boy
It gets really easy to get girls
It's all so easy you get a bit spoilt
So when you try to pull a girl
Who is also famous too
It feels just like when you wasn't famous

You were so much fun
I really got to like you more than you liked me
I really hoped that you'd stay
Considering the amount of prang you'd done
You looked amazing on cd uk
You learn dances, do promo, cameras flashing
Get in the van, and zoom away
I wake up high, dizzed feel hung over and sorry for my doomed day

But I know I got a bit close to you
And that you found it f___ing boring
You taught me so much about
How to deal with the fire I'd fallen in
And what version of a rumour would be next day Everyone's story of me
You taught me all the realities
And turn the page and ignore 'em

[Chorus]
When you're a famous boy
It gets really easy to get girls
It's all so easy you get a bit spoilt
So when you try to pull a girl
Who is also famous too
It feels just like when you wasn't famous

Anyway, I had to rest my beer hat
Delete my dealer's number and unroll my bank notes
And we were on borrowed time anyway
What with the daily toilet papers not knowing
And I knew that when the people who thought they knew you
When they found out, I would've been mocked
Which is ironic, cos in reality
Standing next to you I look f___ing soft

Whenever I see you on MTV
I can't stop my big wide smile
And past the children's appeal
I see the darkness behind
We both know the scratches on my back
Much better than the alludes and lies
I miss the b____ing and shouting
But I'm glad I got out in time

[Chorus]
When you're a famous boy
It gets really easy to get girls
It's all so easy you get a bit spoilt
So when you try to pull a girl
Who is also famous too
It feels just like when you wasn't famous

You can't keep f___ing popstars
We've got a f___ing business to run
There are industry repercussions, Michael
I know
