  • Since it means so much to you

    Hollywood hills, pocket full of shells
    Sunset draggin', I haven't even slept for days on end
    Something's gotta give
    Might as well live it up until the fat lady sings

    You want it, you got it
    It's everything you dreamed

    'Cause I just wanna be famous, be so fuckin' jaded
    'Cause all the Playboy bunnies take my money from me
    Show up at the Oscars, smoke out Dennis Hopper
    The money is for nothin' and the chicks are for free
    Yeah, I wanna be f-f-famous

    When you sleep all day and still get paid
    When the sun goes down, we do it all over again
    'Cause when you're on a roll, they gotta let ya go
    Right through the back door, let the games begin

    You want it, you got it
    It's everything you dreamed

    'Cause I just wanna be famous, be so fuckin' jaded
    'Cause all the Playboy bunnies take my money from me
    Show up at the Oscars, smoke out Dennis Hopper
    The money is for nothin' and the chicks are for free
    Yeah, I wanna be f-f-famous

    And I hope that it's everything that you dreamed about
    Be careful what you wish for
    Hope that it's everything that you dreamed
    When everything's fallin' apart at the seams
    And I know that you never believed in me
    Don't ever let 'em fuck with your dreams

    Since it means so much to you

    You want it, you got it
    It's everything you dreamed

    'Cause I just wanna be famous, be so fuckin' jaded
    'Cause all the Playboy bunnies take my money from me
    Show up at the Oscars, smoke out Dennis Hopper
    The money is for nothin' and the chicks are for free

    I just wanna be famous 'cause fame is contagious
    Now all the Playboy bunnies want my honey from me
    Show up at the Grammy's, so loaded they can me
    The money is for nothin' and the chicks are for free

    Yeah, I wanna be f-f-famous
    Yeah, I wanna be f-f-famous

  • Luna Loud from Royal Woods, MichiganI always thought it was, "Show up at the Grammys, so loaded, they PAN me," like, his band performed a song at the Grammy awards show but he/his band was so high/drunk that they sounded like s**t, or messed up the song that the critics and everyone watching had something bad to say about them. I guess they could also have been "canned", though.
