TISM If You're Not Famous At Fourteen, You're Finished lyrics

“Hello Australia and welcome to Countdown.1 I'm Gavin Wood and here's TISM!”

Some people think it's in your genes, others find that view extreme
Either way like an old has-been, you're finished now when you're 14
The pressure's on, you're off the pace, if agents aren't around your place
Bidding for your fresh young face, you ain't so hard to replace

If you're not famous at 14, you're finished
If you're not famous at 14, you're finished

At 10 you join some theatre crew, at you've been on TV too
At 3 he can't sing Beaches through, book that kid more GymbaROO
There ain't no scouts from AFL, there ain't no show reel, what the hell?
No TV, not even Foxtel, some people just can't raise kids well


Countdown! Countdown!
“Hello Australia and welcome to Countdown. I'm Gavin Wood and here's TISM!”

It used to be at 21, then at 18 the curtain come?
But now at 14 look out son, that fork in your arse means you're done

If you're not famous at 14, you're finished
If you're not famous at 14, you're finished
If you're not famous at 14, that fork in your arse means you're done
If you're not famous at 14, you're finished
