[Verse 1]
I don't believe in fame; I believe in music
I don't believe in money; I believe in the power of love
I know I got a brain and I know how to use it
I don't want no one to stick his finger in my pie

[Pre-Chorus]
You think you put your best foot forward
But it is moved by someone else
(Moved by someone else)
In blind belief, you follow every path that says:
"I lead you to a universe of fortune, fame, and luck"

[Chorus]
Do you really wanna be—rich and famous, rich and famous?
Do you really wanna be—rich and famous now?

[Verse 2]
I don't believe in rock 'n' roll illusions
I don't believe that what they say must always be the truth
I don't believe in good guys against bad guys
I just might as well say I believe in Santa Claus

[Pre-Chorus]
You think you put your best foot forward
But it is moved by someone else
(Moved by someone else)
In blind belief, you follow every path that says:
"I lead you to a universe of fortune, fame, and luck"
[Chorus]
Do you really wanna be—rich and famous, rich and famous?
Do you really wanna be—rich and famous now?

[Bridge]
Mr. Bigshot, what is your game?
Mr. Bigshot, what is your final aim?
Now you wonder who is to blame
Mr. Bigshot, what is your final aim in life?

Rich and famous, house with two bars
Big Jacuzzi, car with TV
Private airplane, furs and diamonds
Seafood cocktails—crap and bullshit!

[Chorus]
Do you really wanna be—rich and famous, rich and famous?
Do you really wanna be—rich and famous now?
Everybody wants to be—rich and famous, rich and famous
Do you really wanna be—rich and famous now?

[Outro]
Oh, want some diamonds, honey?
