Starz In Their Eyes - "Just Jack"

They'll be making sure you stay amused

They'll fill you up with drugs and booze

Maybe you'll make the evening news

 

And when you're tripping over your dreams

They'll keep you down by any means

and by the end of the night you'll be stifling your screams

 

Since you became a VIPerson

It's like your problems have all worsened

Your paranoia casts aspersions

On the truths you know

 

And they'll just put you in the spotlight

And hope that you'll do alright

Or maybe not

 

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?

Why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?

So why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?

Starz in their eyes?

 

Remember they said you'd show them all

Emphasise the rise but not the fall

And now you're playing a shopping mall

 

Your mum and dad they can't believe

What you appear to have achieved

While the rest of these users are just laughing in their sleeves

 

Since you became a VIPerson

It's like your problems have all worsened

Your paranoia casts aspersions

On the truths you know

 

And now the tabloids use your face

To document your fall from grace

And then they'll tell you that that's just the way it goes

That's just the way it goes

 

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?

It's the same old story well they just didn't realise

And it's a long way to come from the dog and duck karaoke machine

And Saturday night's drunken dreams

 

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?

It's the same old story well they just didn't realise

And it's a long way to come from your private bedroom dance routines

And Saturday night's drunken dreams

 

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?

Why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?

So why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?

Starz in their eyes?

 

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?

It's the same old story well they just didn't realise

And it's a long way to come from the dog and duck karaoke machine

And Saturday night's drunken dreams

 

(When I grow up im going to be famous)

 

Behind the steel barrier and sequence and glitter

Five inch heels still knee deep in the litter

Each of them a bitter bullshitter,

Wrapped up in the cloak of fake glamour, getting lost in the camera

Well footprints are fools gold, diamonds crusts on their one off plimsolls

So little time for these one off arseholes

Rigour mortis Ken and Barbie dolls,

A pair of big shades and a push up bra,

It's such a short gap between the gutter and stars,

That you've come a long way from the place that you started

So why'd you wanna go and get so down hearted

 

Welcome to the kingdom of the blagger

Uncutting you nose clean, coating you bladder

A whole lot happier a whole lot sadder,

Used to be satisfied but now you feel like Mick Jagger,

 

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?

It's the same old story well they just didn't realise

And it's a long way to come from the dog and duck karaoke machine

And Saturday night's drunken dreams

 

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?

It's the same old story well they just didn't realise

And it's a long way to come from your private bedroom dance routines

And Saturday night's drunken dreams
