Star People Lyrics

Star People lyrics

Star people

 Counting your money 'til your soul turns green

 Star people

 Counting the cost of your desire to be seen

 

 I do not count myself among you

 I may be living in a dream

 It's just there seems so many of you

 Can't help but hope there's a difference between

 You and Me

 

 You're a star

 (I'm talking to you)

 You're a star

 

 Maybe your mama gave you up, boy

 (It's the same old, same old)

 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

 Trying to forget they had to pay for what you see

 

 It's a dream

 With a nightmare stuck in the middle

 But listen, brother, where would you be

 Without all this attention?

 You'd die

 I'd die

 We'd die

 Wouldn't we?

 Well, wouldn't we?

 

 You're a star

 (I'm talking to you)

 You're a star

 And you should go far

 

 Maybe your mama gave you up, boy

 It's the same old, same old

 Maybe your daddy didn't love you enough, girl

 how much is enough?

 

 I said, talk about your mother

 Talk about your father

 Talk about the people

 Who have made you what you are

 Talk about your teacher

 The bully boy that  beat ya

 Talk about the people that have paid

 For that new sports car

 

 Did you get off on a bad foot, baby?

 Do you have a little tale to tell?

 Is that why you're a star?

 Is that what makes a star?

 

 Well, nothing comes from nothing, baby

 That fame and fortune's heaven-sent

 And who gives a fuck about your problems, darling

 When you can pay the rent?

 

 How much is enough?
