I Want To Be A Popstar Lyrics - Pointless Nostalgic - Jamie Cullum

Why is it all these fakers 

Seem to nake the morning papers? 

They're selling records by the million, seems so easy in my opinion 

Lokk at the Jazz Star, he really needs some guts 

Playing from seven to midnight, surviving on peanuts 

Selling records by the dozen 

Probably sold his tenor to make 'em 

With artwork designed by his brother 

And liner notes by his mother 

Told what to do, miming to a tape 

While a team of experts make sure you're looking great 

Taking a limo to your own private bar 

My God! I want to be a popstar!

NEW SONG: Taylor Swift - 'You Need To Calm Down' - LYRICS 

Going to get on the T.V and go on dates with only the pretty 

Maybe next year I'll pretend to be gay 

I'll sell more records in a flash that way 

Makes no difference if i look like a nut 

Every kid in the world is going to copy my haircut 

I'll advertise some trainers, maybe even a car 

Shrewd product placement will gurantee I'm a star 

An ugly guy will write my songs 

Surley there is nothing wrong 

Retiring when I'm 22 

With a house a car and nothing to do 

Instantaneous satisfaction it will be 

Got no need for artistic credibility 

With this attitude I'm bound to go far 

My God! I want to be a popstar!

Where's the middle ground? 

It's hard to make a living with you own true sound 

What road am I going to tread? 

What the hell would i do instead? 

There may be no tours in Roma, or drug-induced designer coma 

No teenage girls when show is over, I prefer my women older 

Maybe I don't know what I'm talking about 

Sometimes it would be nice to play a place and sell out 

Driving to a gig in my brand new sports car 

My God! I want to be a popstar! 

Maybe its too easy, to move so quickly so far 

Who wants to be a popstar?
