I can't help myself
I'm addicted to a life of material
It's some kind of joke
I'm obsessively opposed to the typical
All we care about is
Runway models, Cadillacs and liquor bottles
Give me something, I wanna be
Retro glamour, Hollywood, yes, we live for the

Fame (fame)
Doin' it for the fame (fame)
'Cause we wanna live the life of the rich and famous
Fame (fame)
Doin' it for the fame (fame)
'Cause we got a taste for champagne and endless fortune

Fame, fame, baby, the fame, fame
We live for the fame, fame, baby, the fame, fame
Isn't it a shame, shame, baby? A shame, shame
In it for the fame, fame, baby, the fame, fame

I can see myself
In the movies with my picture in city lights
Photograph my mind
And whatever else you'd like to shoot, you decide
All we care about is
Pornographic girls on film and body plastic
Give me something I wanna see
Television, and hot blondes in odd positions

Fame (fame)
Doin' it for the fame (fame)
'Cause we wanna live the life of the rich and famous
Fame (fame)
Doin' it for the fame (fame)
'Cause we got a taste for champagne and endless fortune

Fame, fame, baby, the fame, fame
We live for the fame, fame, baby, the fame, fame
Isn't it a shame, shame, baby? A shame, shame
In it for the fame, fame, baby, the fame, fame

Don't ask me how or why (or why)
But I'm gonna make it happen this time
My teenage dream tonight (tonight)
Yeah, I'm gonna make it happen this time (this time)
Fame

(Fame, doin' it for the fame)
('Cause we wanna live the life of the) rich and famous

Fame (fame)
Doin' it for the fame (fame)
'Cause we wanna live the life of the rich and famous
Fame (fame)
Doin' it for the fame (fame)
'Cause we got a taste for champagne and endless fortune
Fame (fame)
Doin' it for the fame (fame)
'Cause we wanna live the life of the rich and famous
Fame (fame)
Doin' it for the fame (fame)
'Cause we got a taste for champagne and endless fortune (fame)
