[Verse 1]
I can't explain glacial motion
Or why Los Angeles don't drop into the ocean
I can't unfold the layers of mystery
Or piece together the tragedy of history, 'cause

[Pre-Chorus]
Those lucky suckers, they don't have to work
Make 3D billboards and big 30-foot Smurfs

[Chorus]
Everybody wants to be naked and famous
Everybody wants to be just like me, I'm naked
And famous

[Verse 2]

Reality and sobriety were her only delusions, and

[Pre-Chorus]
Those lucky bastards, they didn't have to work
Make 3D billboards and big 30-foot Smurfs

[Chorus]
Everybody wants to be naked and famous
Everybody wants to be just like me, I'm naked
And famous
[Guitar Solo]

[Interlude]
(Woo!)
Ah-hoo-hoo-hoo
(Woo!)
Ah-hoo-hoo-hoo

[Bridge]
Well, don't get a nosebleed, don't get upset
We can't be naked and famous just yet

[Chorus]
Everybody wants to be naked and famous
Everybody wants to be just like me, I'm naked
Everybody wants to be naked and famous
Everybody wants to be just like me, I'm naked
Everybody wants to be naked and famous
Everybody wants to be just like me, I'm naked
(Oh, oh yeah)
Ah-hoo-hoo-hoo, woo!
And everybody wants to be naked and famous
Everybody wants to be just like me, I'm naked
And famous
