Fame Lyrics

Artist: Van Morrison
Album: What's Wrong With This Picture?

Van Morrison
Exile Publishing Ltd / Universal Music Publishing Ltd

Oh fame, theyâ‚¬â„¢ve taken everything and twisted it
Oh fame they say
You never could have resisted it
Whatâ‚¬â„¢s in a name
And everybodyâ‚¬â„¢s jaded by fame

Oh fame again
The press has gone and made another mess of it
Oh just because they got
So much invested in it
But they say youâ‚¬â„¢re to blame itâ‚¬â„¢s your own fault
â‚¬ËœCos you got mixed up in fame

Oh no donâ‚¬â„¢t believe all that old Andy Warhol guff
It takes a lot more than 10 or 15 minutes
Thatâ‚¬â„¢s just not enough
To qualify you for

Fame, you went beyond the boundries of sanity
And every day you defy
All the laws of gravity
You ainâ‚¬â„¢t got no shame
â‚¬ËœCos youâ‚¬â„¢re just addicted to fame

Oh no donâ‚¬â„¢t you buy none of that old Andy Warhol stuff
It takes a lot more than 10 or 15 minutes
Thatâ‚¬â„¢s just not enough
To qualify you for

Fame, theyâ‚¬â„¢re already setting up your own Watergate
Oh fame, that stalker out there is just filled with hate
Youâ‚¬â„¢ll never be the same
â‚¬ËœCos everyoneâ‚¬â„¢s corrupted by fame

Oh fame, they took away all my humanity
Oh fame got to fight
Every second of the day for my dignity
Itâ‚¬â„¢s a spectatorâ‚¬â„¢s game
And there ainâ‚¬â„¢t nothing fair about fame

Oh fame, oh fame
Oh fame say it again, fame
They say youâ‚¬â„¢re to blame
â‚¬ËœCos you got mixed up in fame
