Graham Coxon - The Golden D

Fame and Fortune

Fame and fortune
Facts of life
Most of what makes it this useless try
So change the angle of the battle plan
To hit the target
Fame and fortune fancy that
Nothing but rabbits coming outta the hat
So try and catch a falling star
Crush it to dust and stuck it down a jar
And throw it far away

Now the void is back to front
See through people
See through monuments
No reply

The beginning, happy ending
The beginning, happy ending
The beginning, happy ending (one goes up, one goes down)
The beginning, happy ending (one goes up, one goes down)

Smash your face against the wall
Blinded, facing to the ground no no
Pretty faces on the wall
We fall

Piece a point disappear in the sky
Slack the ashes and make you do it right
Pretty faces on the wall Oh no no no

Fame and fortune is a stupid game and
Fame and fortune is the game i play
Fame and fortune is a stupid game and
Fame and fortune is the game i play
Fame and fortune is a stupid game and
Fame and fortune is the game i play
Fame and fortune is a stupid game and
Fame and fortune is the game i play
I'll play forever
