i'm ready for my fifteen minutes of fame
and i'm ready to hear applause and acclaim
i've struggled for so long, think my moment's now...
i'm ready for my fifteen minutes, and how!
VERSE ONE
i'm tired of strugglin', of barely gettin' by
tired of the bills that keep on pilin' up high
i'm tired of havin' to work ev'ry day
i'm tired of workin' hard for little pay
VERSE TWO
why should i be nice--all i do is get screwed
i'm so tired of bein' used and abused
i'm tired of always cryin' late at night
wonder when my life will finally go right
REFRAIN
i'm ready for my fifteen minutes of fame
and i'm ready to hear applause and acclaim
i've struggled for so long, think my moment's now...
i'm ready for my fifteen minutes--and how!
VERSE THREE
tired of feelin' i'll never get ahead
tired of thinkin' i'd be better off dead
tired of prayin'--he's not list'nin' to me
what must i do to alter my destiny
BRIDGE
what can i do to change my ways
what must i do in order to change
but until then...
REFRAIN
i'm ready for my fifteen minutes of fame
and i'm ready to hear applause and acclaim
i've struggled for so long, think my moment's now...
i'm ready for my fifteen minutes--and how!
