Starz In Their Eyes

1. They'll be making sure you stay amused
They'll fill you up with drugs and booze
Maybe you'll make the evenin' news.

And when you're trippin' over your dreams
They'll keep you down by any means
By the end of the night
You'll be stiflin' your screams.

Since you became a V.I. Person
It's like your problems have all worsened
Your paranoia casts aspersions
On the truths you know.

And they'll just put you in a spotlight
And hope that you'll do alright
Or maybe not.

[Chorus:]
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.

2. Remember they said you'd show them all
Emphasize the rise but not the fall
And now you're playin' a shoppin' mall.

Your mum and dad, they can't believe
What you appear to have achieved
While the rest of these users
Are just laughin' in their sleeves.

Since you became a V.I. Person
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 realize

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 realize.

And it's a long way to come
From your private bedroom dance routines
And Saturday night's drunken dreams.

[Chorus]

[Coda:]
Now why do you wanna go
And put starz in their eyes?
It's the same old story
Well, they just didn't realize

And it's a long way to come
From the dog and duck karaoke machine
Saturday night's drunken dreams.
