It was a common story, yeah who cares that I changed?
|
Why are people freaking out?
|
Maybe I gave in more than I should, maybe I sold out
|
But the truth was I was really getting nowhere until I woke up and found
|
That morals can't take you up to the top your standards pull you down
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Was it worth it what I gave away
|
For five minutes of fame
|
Minutes over no one knows my name
|
Or my minute of fame
|
|
I always said the thing that meant the most to me was my very integrity
|
Who would have thought I'd ever trade it all for popularity
|
'Cause the truth is though I've made it to the top I'm anything but satisfied
|
I gave up the only thing that mattered for this empty life
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Was it worth it what I gave away
|
For five minutes of fame
|
Minutes over no one knows my name
|
Or my minute of fame
|
|
This time I'm saying no
|
This world will know what I believe in
|
I've lost enough to know
|
That life's too short to waste it
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Was it worth it what I gave away
|
For five minutes of fame 1,2,3,4
|
Minutes over no one knows my name
|
Or my minute of fame
|
Was it worth it what I gave away
|
For five minutes of fame
|
Minutes over no one knows my name
|
Or my minute of fame
|
