This is a song for all of my close friends
|
Anonymous neighbours with stories to tell
|
I didn't realise I had so many close friends
|
Nameless and shameless with hearsay to sell
|
|
What's the fuss you gotta be in it to win it
|
I want pride but I know I'll never get it
|
Fame! I wanna live for 15 minutes
|
I want love but my heart's not in it
|
|
If only it was lonely at the top
|
I've got too much but it's never enough
|
If only it was lonely at the top
|
If only it was lonely at the top...
|
|
This is a song for all the complainers
|
All the campaigners who will not give up
|
They're selling their soul just to wear their sunglasses
|
Then say "Stop the press! I want to get off"
|
|
What's the fuss I gotta be in it to win it
|
I want pride but I know I'll never get it
|
Shame, I wanna live for 15 minutes
|
I want love but my heart's not in it
|
|
If only it was lonely at the top
|
I've got too much but it's never enough
|
If only it was lonely at the top
|
If only it was lonely...
|
|
What's the fuss you gotta be in it to win it
|
I want pride but I know I'll never get it
|
Fame! I wanna live for 15 minutes
|
I want love but my heart's not in it
|
|
If only it was lonely at the top
|
I've got too much but it's never enough
|
If only it was lonely at the top
|
If only it was lonely at the top...
|
|
If only it was lonely at the top.
