about

A song written about some people's unfathomable desire for fame for its own sake and at any cost

lyrics

I want the fifteen owed to me
I want the fifteen owed to me
I want it all right now and I want it for free
Cos I am all there is and all there will ever be

And I want everyone to see
An inspired mediocrity
And it’s all that you have to believe
In the cult of celebrity

If I pay with my dignity
Well that don’t mean a lot to me
I just want everyone to be
Here in my fantasy world, come along

I want the fifteen owed to me
I want the fifteen owed to me
I want it now and I want it for free
Cos I am all there is and all there will ever be

Don’t understand humility
Think it must be lost on me
Doesn’t seem like its something I need
In this age of celebrity here
If I don’t have anything I can bring
It doesn’t matter to me

I want the fifteen owed to me
I want the fifteen owed to me
As long as everybody’s talking
Bout the latest piece of nothing
Though I really don’t know
What my future is going to be
