Your Only Shot at Getting Famous

If you haven’t yet learned how this game is designed,

Just know that I am only here to fuck with your mind.

My conversations are lacking, and my words obsolete

I’ll laugh as she sets your heart on fire and stomps it out with her feet.

Maybe we’re all the people that our parents warned us about.

We flirt with the illusion of glamour

Your fifteen minutes of fame are almost up

Soon you’ll be looking for another fix

It’s about time this addiction kicked in

One taste is it all takes

Heart beats faster and your body mildly shakes

Adrenaline is spreading through my veins

The slave driver of Hollywood pulls tight on the reins

Driving hard into the core of society

He whips around corners, and sneaks up when you can’t see

Your life has been stolen

The future has been drugged and dragged into the woods for further attention

But didn’t you say that all you wanted was affection?

We flirt with the illusion of glamour

Your fifteen minutes of fame are almost up

Soon you’ll be looking for another fix

It’s about time this addiction kicked in

The critics’ analysis just came in.

According to recent speculation

We are living in a sadist nation

Don’t lose yourself in the heat of it all

It will wrap you up, lift you and watch you fall

Don’t lose yourself in the heat of it all

It will wrap you up, lift you and watch you fall

The future has been drugged and dragged into the woods for further attention

But didn’t you say that all you wanted was affection?

Attention! Addiction! Affection!

Attention! Addiction! Affection!

We are living in a sadist nation

Maybe we’re all the people that our parents warned us about.
