When Will I Be Famous?

When will I, will I be famous?

Whoa

Hoo-hoo-hoo

Yes, you're suitably one

Meet your body and the sun

Yes, you are

You've read Karl Marx

And you've taught yourself to dance

You're the best by far

But you keep asking the question

One you're not supposed to mention

Hey, yeah ooh!

When will I, will I be famous?

I can't answer

I can't answer that

When will I see my picture in the paper?

I can't answer

I can't answer that

When will I, will I be famous?

You keep asking me, babe

You're a slave to fashion

And your life is full of passion

It's the way you are

You've suffered for your art

With the jogging in the park

You know you should go far

But you keep asking the question

One you're not supposed to mention

Yeah ooh!

When will I, will I be famous?

I can't answer

I can't answer that

When will I see my picture in the paper?

I can't answer

I can't answer that

But I can tell you when

You'll see your name up in lights

When will I, will I be famous?

You keep asking me, babe

I can't wait

You won't suffer in silence

You're a talent

You know that I've noticed

You'd like to be a legend

A big star overnight

I can't answer your question

It's driving me insane

And your impossible impatience

Tearing at my brain

I can't take it, take it much more

When will I, will I

When will I, will I be famous?

I can't answer

I can't answer that

When will I, will I be famous?

I can't answer

I can't answer that

When will I, will I be famous?

I can't answer

Will somebody answer that?

When will I see my picture in the paper?

I can't answer

I can't answer that

When will, tell me when

I can't answer

I can't answer that

When will I, will I be famous?
