Fame is something money can buy
But does it mean the rest can't give it a try?
Forever and ever

And what it takes
That's something else I can't say
But does it mean
We turn the best ones away?
Forever and ever

Whatever happened to the sound
The scratch and the needle comin' down?
Maybe we started this too late
Whatever happened to that song?
Whatever happened to the pills we ate?
The pills we ate?

Fame is something else you can buy
But does it mean that we can't give it a try?
Forever and ever
Forever and ever
Forever
