Internet Celebrity

Internet celebrity, barely even thirteen
Clock is ticking, you get ready
For your moment on a six inch screen
What are you not learning
For that short term money?
Mama signed your contracts
Got a million contacts
Instant celebrity, on that new wave streaming
Crying, can't stop singing
But the youth's depleting
You were once just a young boy
Now on your own employ
Keep up taking pictures
Tiny squares of scripture

You're an overnight sensation
Breaking hearts across the nation

It's a new generation, brand new expectations
It's a new generation, bigger, better validation
I just wonder where you go
When you're all on your own
Does it quietly sit in?
Can you just keep going?
There's a book of history
Says it makes the people crazy
Still you put on that sweatshirt
Play a sold out concert

You're an overnight sensation
Breaking hearts across the nation

Laid a blanket of wide eyes on you
Till you get your first tattoo
High fade, clean cut hairdo
Living through your first review
Take care and be weary
Just a kid, fame hungry
Is it strange that you'd wanna be an internet celebrity?
