The Key To Life Vs 15 Minutes Of Fame Lyrics

[Pilot over PA] 

"Folks I know you're all dying to know how long-- 

I cannot answer that now. We're gonna have to remain as technicians come over


and take a look at it and uh once that's done, then we'll give you an estimate


I'd say it's probably at least uh 15 minutes or so." 



[Verse 1] 

It's like all of Franklin Avenue now sleeps upon my chest--my chest 

I've used cigarette butts and loose leaves to build my nest--build my nest 

Did I mention I appreciate the way you treat your guests?--guess not 

But I'm not really convinced when you say that you're impressed--hell no 

The line between MC and comedian gets a little thinner--little thinner 

Now it's nothing but ruffage for lunch and punchlines for dinner--feed me 

I've tried to open the blinds to let in some sunshine 

Wound the watch 'til it broke all in hopes of stopping the time 



[Chorus] 

The key broke off in the ignition 

Hoping if I wandered off through my thoughts wishing 

Hoping this could be for you but it is for me patiently I stay busy, I wait, I
see [X2] 



It's the sure shot [X6] 



[Verse 2] 

See it's simple--simple, it's not that I want to make it ripple--ripple 

But I feel I'm only being civil--civil 

When I sit back and giggle like the rest it's the ritalin-a-fest! 

I'm stressed--stressed, but most of 'em would never guess--never guess 

That I'm closing in upon the dredge 

Why? Cause I think it'd be best for the who? To hide the mess from who? 

It's all true--it's all true not good but I know it'll do--it'll do 

Still trying to reach the kid in you 

So I may continue to find why this childproof's so wild 

I smile--smile, tired, I walked a thousand miles--miles 

wired over the thoughts I've dialed--dialed 

Inspired by the monsters, the files of life full of stars and stripes 



[Chorus] 



[Chorus End] 

If you wanna sit with me and talk about existance 

We'll need more than 15 minutes 

I'll tell you what let's forget about the fame 

Push pause on the game and get to know each other by our real names 

If you wanna sit with me and talk about existance 

We'll need more than 15 minutes 

I'll tell you what let's forget about the fame 

Push pause on the game and get to know each other by our first names 

If you wanna sit with me and talk about existance 

We'll need more than 15 minutes 

I'll tell you what let's forget about the fame 

Push pause on the game...What the fuck's your name?
