verse
If you are what you say you are (yeah, yeah) a superstar (gon' say now)
Then have no fear, the camera's here
And they wanna know-oh-oh-oh, yeah (free Chilly)
verse
Yeah, uh, a fresh cool young Lu'
Tryin' cash his microphone check, 2-1-2
Wanna believe my own hype but it's too untrue
The world brought me to my knees, what have you brung you?
Did you improve on the design? Did you do somethin' new?
Well, your name ain't on the guest list, who brung you?
You! The more famous person you come through
And the sexy lady next to you, you come too
verse
Like Shadow and Lavelle, I battle with it well
Though I need holiday like lady who sung "Blue"
Go back, whatever you did you undo
Heavy as heaven, the devil on me, two tons too
chorus
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
Then have no fear, the camera's here
And they wanna know-oh-oh-oh, yeah
verse
And you better wear your shades
The spotlights here can burn holes through the stage
Down to the basement pass the Indian graves
Where the dinosaurs laid and
Out through China, nearly miss the airliners
verse
Magnified times five, 'less it's pointed at the rhymer
Ricochets off the moon and sets the forest ablaze
Now, that's important to say
'Cause even with all that most of us don't want it to fade
verse
We want it to braid, meaning we want it to grow
Meaning we want it to stay
Like the governor called and he told him to wait
Unstrap him from the chair and put him back in his cage
chorus
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
Then have no fear, the crowd is here
And they want a show-oh-oh-oh, yeah
verse
So chauffeur, chauffeur, come and take me away
'Cause I've been standin' in this line for like five whole days
Me and security ain't getting' along
And when I got to the front, they told me all of the tickets were gone
verse
So just take me home where the mood is mellow
And the roses are grown, M&M's are yellow
And the light bulbs around my mirror don't flicker
Everybody gets a nice autograph picture
verse
One for you and one for your sister
Who had to work tonight but is an avid listener
Every songs her favorite song and mics don't feedback
All the reviewers say "You need to go and see that"
And everybody claps 'cause everybody is pleased
And then they all take the stage and start performin' for me
