[Verse 1]
Fame (Fame) makes a man take things over
Fame (Fame) lets him loose, hard to swallow
Fame (Fame) puts you there where things are hollow
Fame (Fame)

[Chorus]
Fame, not your brain, it's just the flame
That burns your change to keep you insane ('Sane)
Fame (Fame), hmm

[Verse 2]
Fame (Fame), what you like is in the limo
Fame (Fame), what you get is no tomorrow
Fame (Fame), what you need, you have to borrow
Fame (Fame)

[Chorus]
Fame, "Nein, it's mine" is just his line
To bind your time, it drives you to crime (Crime)
Fame (Fame)

[Bridge]
Ribbity-bee-gah-beh, ribbity-bee
Ribbity-ree, ribbit, ribbity-bay
Ribbity-bee-ba-bay, ribbity-bay
Ribbity-bay, ribbity-bay
[Verse 3]
Is it any wonder I reject you first?
Fame, fame, fame, fame
Is it any wonder you are too cool to fool?
Fame (Fame)

[Chorus]
Fame, bully for you, chilly for me
Got to get a rain check on pain (Pain)
(Fame)

[Outro]
Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame
Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame
Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame
Fame
What's your name?
Get me some fame (Fame)
Now get-a fame (Fame)
