Humble Star

Back lounge, tree hound
Glazed sun, hell bound
Call up all your closest friends
So we can do it all again

Hey, humble star
Do you think you're gonna live forever?
But what's forever?
Did you ever have the feeling you were falling, walking
Now you're crawling, oh?

Blind man, coke fan
Politician
Guess you got it all too soon
Now you're sucking on a glass balloon

Hey, humble star
Do you think you're gonna live forever?
But what's forever?
Is it better than what they bought and sold you?
Now they control your soul

And all the time you knew that I was standing there
Asking all the questions, who and why and where

You run and hide, you swim away
Afraid of all the things I say
Now the time's caught up with you

Fast car, child star
J.A.P. girl, rap czar
No one is to blame
How's it feel to be a household name?

Someone's about to lose
And it's playing on the evening news

Hey, crumbled star
I guess it didn't last forever
Does it ever?
Forever's never
I guess you really weren't so clever
