Barenaked Ladies Celebrity (Album Version) lyrics

Don't call me a zero, I'm gonna be a hero
Like Phil Esposito or the Kennedy's
I'll be incorporated, and I'll be imitated
And overrated, but that doesn't bother me

All the jaws will drop and all the girls will scream
And there will be commotion when I show up on the scene

All that you will see is a celebrity
All that you will see is a celebrity

When I'm riding in my limo, I won't look out the window
Might make me homesick for humanity
There's nowhere that I can't go and there's nobody I don't know
And there's an emptiness that's eating me

All the clocks will stop and all the jeans will cream
It has always been my one and only dream


All that's left of me is my celebrity
All that's left of me is my celebrity

Leave your heart, lay down your art
You're here for the party
Smile and wave, try to behave
Be happy that they've made you a celebrity

I could disappear into the great unknown
And it would wear my face as if it were its own

And all that you will see is a celebrity
All that's left of me is my celebrity
I will get in first and I will get in free
All that's left of me is my celebrity
