Celebrity Lyrics

The song Celebrity is performed by Barenaked Ladies in the album named Everything to Everyone in the year 2003 .

Don't call me a zero, I'm gonna be a hero
Like Phil Esposito or the Kennedys
I'll be incorporated and I'll be imitated
And overrated, but that doesn't bother me

All the jaws will drop
And all the girls will scream
And there will be commotion
When I show up on the scene

All that you will see, is a celebrity
All that you will see, is a celebrity

When I'm riding in my limo, I won't look out the window
Might make me homesick for humanity
There's nowhere that I can't go and there's nobody I don't know
And there's an emptiness that's eating me

All the clocks will stop
And all the jeans will cream
It has always been
My one and only dream

All that's left of me, is my celebrity
All that's left of me, is my celebrity

Leave your heart, lay down your art
You're here for the party
Smile and wave, try to behave
Be happy that they've made you a celebrity

I could disappear
Into the great unknown
And it would wear my face
As if it were its own

And all that you will see is a celebrity
All that's left of me, is my celebrity
I will get in first and I will get in free
All that's left of me, is my celebrity
