"The Fame" Lyrics

Now im gonna go ahead and tell you (like this)

And radio gone play it until you (like this)

And beat it in there heads till' the move
(like this)

And hopefully i won't have to use
(my fists)

(Verse 1)

It started 1990 a young star was born.
Life wasn't sweet had no carmel corn.
hand me down shoes and old garments worn.
Momma turned the oven on till' i was warm.
Electric turned off she said dont be afraid.
Water on the stove just so i could bath.
No child support so no bills were paid.
Nothing but dissapointment the time christmas came.
I got a little older as time slipped away.
Watched the rain drops from my window pane.
Daddy was not there to teach him to shave.
Then i picked up the mic and said this will change.

(Hook)

Now all these fans coming to see me perform.
Made so much money the week we was gone.
Now im back home and i feel the same.
Nothings really changed because of the fame.

Because of the fame.

Because of the fame.

The Fame. The Fame. The Fame.

(Verse 2)

I wake up every morning and i talk to god.
Start my normal day in my normal car.
Normal secretary and my normal job.
Normal line of credit so hence normal cards.
But then i see a stranger and he knows my name.
Wife and kids with him and they know the same.
And then i get to thinking because im a star.....

A Star Star Star Star.

(Hook)

Now all these fans coming to see me perform.
Made so much money the week we was gone.
Now im back home and i feel the same.
Nothings really changed because of the fame.

Because of the fame.

Because of the fame.

The Fame. The Fame. The Fame.

(Bridge)

Now all these fans coming to see me perform.

Perfrom, Perform, Perform, Perform.

Now i'm back home and i feel the same nothings really
changed because of the fame.

(Hook)

Now all these fans coming to see me perform.
Made so much money the week we was gone.
Now im back home and i feel the same.
Nothings really changed because of the fame.

Because of the fame.

Because of the fame.

The Fame. The Fame. The Fame.
