The Magnetic Fields
Famous
[Verse 1: Stephin Merritt]
I know you've tried
I know you've cried
I know you've died
A little inside, but
[Chorus]
Baby, you could be famous
You could see your marble face all around
Baby, you could be famous
If you could just get out of this town
Just get out of this town now
Baby, you could be famous
You could sell the world a new look and sound
Baby, you could be famous
If you could just get out of this town
Just get out of this town now
[Verse 2]
You sold your soul
To rock 'n' roll
Gave up control
But here's your loophole:
[Chorus]
Baby, you could be famous
You could see your marble face all around
Baby, you could be famous
If you could just get out of this town
Just get out of this town now
Baby, you could be famous
You could sell the world a new look and sound
Baby, you could be famous
If you could just get out of this town
Just get out of this town now
[Verse 3]
You are the queen
Of every scene
You are the king
Of everything
[Chorus]
Baby, you could be famous
You could see your marble face all around
Baby, you could be famous
If you could just get out of this town
Just get out of this town now
Baby, you could be famous
You could sell the world a new look and sound
Baby, you could be famous
If you could just get out of this town
Just get out of this town now
