Price of fame

I took my baby on a river boat cruise
And she was well aware
I was excited about the way the things could have been
As in if I don’t care

I want a face no one can recognize, in disguise
Someone called out my name
They thought of taking pictures, autographs, then they grab
My joy had turned to pain

Father always told me
’You won’t live a quiet life’
If you’re reaching for fortune and fame
I feel the pressure setting in
I’m living just to win
I’m down in my pain
Don’t you feelin’ no pain?

It’s the price of fame
You pay the price of fame
So don’t be feelin’ no pain
It’s the price of fame
It’s the price of fame
So don’t you ever complain?

I am a cover of a magazine, what a scene
They know my every do’s
’Just sign your name on the dotted line, you’ll be fine’
That always bothers me

Get in your car, you wanna take a ride, look behind
Someone is following you
You try to get away you turn with that, but too bad
They know your every move

Father always told me
’You won’t live a quiet life’
If you’re reaching for fortune and fame
And I feel the pressure setting in
I’m living just to win
I bleed in all this pain
Don’t you ever complain?

It’s the price of fame
You pay the price of fame
So don’t you ever complain
It’s the price of fame
You pay the price of fame
So don’t be feelin’ no pain?

It’s the price of fame [Price of fame]
You pay the price of fame [Price of fame]
Father never lies
My father never lies [Price of fame]
My father never lies [Price of fame]
So don’t be feelin’ this way, boy

(Hee-Hee)
(Aow!)
(Do it)
(Hoo)

I like to take sometime and get away, then they’ll say
Is that boy still alive?
The weak that really started taking pills, what a thrill
Only the strong survive

Father always told me
’You won’t live a quiet life’
They start to wonderin’ where have you been
I feel their envious looks at me
Their mistaken jealousy
And then stand here in my shoes
And get addict of my blues

It’s the price of fame
You pay the price of fame
So don’t you ever complain
It’s the price of fame
You pay the price of fame
So don’t be feelin’ this way

It’s the price of fame
You pay the price of fame
So don’t you ever complain
In the price of fame [Price of fame]
You pay the price of fame [Price of fame]

My father never lies [Price of fame]
My father never lies, baby
My father never lies [Price of fame]
So don’t be feelin’ no pain, boy
