I'm a Star
Everybody's saying: "Girlfriend, just who do you think you are
With your young good looking chauffuer
And your patent leather car?"
Well, I may come from the gutter
But I'm aiming for the stars
And just like Johnny Rotten, I've drive 'em crazy at the bar
Maybe I should bribe a DJ
Maybe I could get played that way
Maybe I should get a gun
You'd have a serial killer at number one
I'm a star (Now that I'm a star)
Now is my time to rise and shine
I'm a star (Now the crowd is mine)
Finish your song because the crowd is mine
Well, the In-Crowd say in night clubs
I have done some carrying on
I'm sorry to offend you, but that's how I research my songs
And if my reputation suffers
Well, I do it for my art
And somewhere inside my microphone, I've got a diamond studded heart
Maybe I should bribe a DJ
Maybe I could get played that way
Cry for public sympathy
Well, you can keep that stuff, 'cos it isn't me
I'm a star (Now that I'm a star)
Now is my time to rise and shine
I'm a star (Now the crowd is mine)
Finish your song because the crowd is mine
I'm a star (I will rise and shine)
Now is my time to rise and shine
I'm a star (Now the crowd is mine)
Finish your song because the crowd is mine
Because the crowd is mine, because the crowd is mine
The crowd is mine, because the crowd is mine
Finish your song because the crowd is mine
Because the crowd is mine, the crowd is mine
Maybe I should bribe a DJ
Maybe I could get played that way
Maybe I should get a gun
You'd have a serial killer at number one
I'm a star (Now that I'm a star)
Now is my time to rise and shing
I'm a star (Now the crowd is mine)
Finish your song because the crowd is mine
Just 'cos I've not got everything
It doesn't mean I don't want more
You've got Take That and George Michael (huh!)
They're such crashing bores!
From Liverpool to Paris
And from Birmingham to Rome
Anywhere there's a spotlight baby!
It's my birthright and my home
You want looks? I got 'em
Meisels' already shot 'em
Jewels? Don't need 'em
There's hungry people feed them
You want names? I'll name them
Scandalise and frame them
Cos I am a Star!
