Lyrics of Superstar (Remember How You Got Where You Are) by The Temptations
intro
Higher, higher
Fire
verse
Don't change your style now that you've reached the top
Don't choose your friends by what they've got
Remember beneath the glitter and gleam
Like everyday people you're just a human being
verse
Superstar, good God
Enjoy your champagne and caviar
And your chauffeur drivin' fancy car
But remember how you got where you are
Oh ho ho, 'cause the same folks that made you
Um hum, you better believe they can break you
verse
No you didn't make it all by yourself
You had help from somebody else
The truth is the light, don't let it depress you
You just be thankful that the good Lord made you
chorus
Superstar, ah do you know who your real friends are
Ah, talkin' to you
Superstar, remember how you got where you are
Ah ah down, down, down, down
verse
Drummer keep it going, going
Horns star blowin', right on time
Blow my mind
Higher higher, higher higher
verse
It's easy for you to look down
Turn up your nose and frown
Now that you're on top, top
verse
Bright lights
Don't let the bright lights blind you
Bridges
Don't burn 'em behind you
chorus
Superstar, superstar do you know who your real friends are
Ah, talkin' to you
Superstar, remember how you got where you are
Um hum, um hum
verse
Don't change your style now that you've reached the top
Don't choose your friends by what they've got
Remember beneath the glitter and gleam
Like everyday people you're just a human being
outro
Superstar, superstar do you know who your real friends are
Writer(s): Norman Whitfield, Barrett Strong
