They say fame is not all it's cracked up to be But when it's calling you, you can't ignore it I know I deserve, a life that's real And I don't want to waste it, on a life that's fake
Here's the lyrics to Irene Cara's iconic song "Fame" :
"I've got to go on, I've got to show How can I tell them, I've got to go on It's been a ride, but I want more I've got to make it, I've got to score
Fame, fame, fame, fame Is what I want to feel I want to make it, I've got to make it Be on top, be on top, be on top
Fame, fame, fame, fame Is what I want to feel"
Fame, fame, I want to wake up, where the city never sleeps And I'm on top, I want to make it, I've got to make it Get my name in lights, see my name in lights I'm gonna make it, I swear I'm gonna make it
