I know what you're saying
I hear it all the time through the game your playing
You try to do what I do
You try it all the time but always seem to fall through

You've been looking for some pure inspiration for a real long time
I'm not caught up in your little conversation cause I know what's mine

So try again
See what happens
You'll make us famous
You'll make us famous

When you talk about us
You're making us famous
You're making us famous
You're making us famous

So why are you trying
It doesn't work so you will never catch me crying
Don't hate we don't hate you
You're wasting all your time why can't you ever get a clue

You've been looking for some pure inspiration for a real long time
I'm not caught up in your little conversation cause I know what's mine

So try again
See what happens
You'll make us famous
You'll make us famous

When you talk about us
You're making us famous
You're making us famous
You're making us famous

So try again
See what happens
You'll make us famous
You'll make us famous

So try again
See what happens
You'll make us famous
You'll make us famous

So try again
See what happens
You'll make us famous
You'll make us famous

When you talk about us
You're making us famous
You're making us famous
You're making us famous

So try again
See what happens
You'll make us famous
You'll make us famous

When you talk about us
You're making us famous
You're making us famous
You're making us famous

We all want to be famous. But if I had to choose between being rich or famous, I would rather be rich.

The song is not about actually becoming famous. It's about people who spread rumors about you.

I feel emotional, Stripey, as this has touched me really deeply. Spreading rumours about somebody is so intensely bad I can't find words for it. It has unfortunately happened to me in life.
You did it for me (= put it into words) and I thank you. Great job!
