[ Featuring the Knockers ]
I started out with big ideas, I knew I'd find my fame
But my star never ascended, and no one knows my name
I thought I'd own a mansion, with a butler and a maid
But I'm stuck with cats, a leaky roof, and bills that can't be paid
I've always thought it would work out, but the matrix has a glitch
I thought that I'd be famous, I certainly ain't rich
Somewhere in the multiverse, I must have left my mark
But back here in reality, I'm tumbling in the dark
I pictured red carpets, awards and fans galore
But there are no paparazzi, waiting at my door
Now I'm getting older, so I'll give you some advice
Act now, or your dreams will melt away like arctic ice
I've always thought it would work out, but the matrix has a glitch
I thought that I'd be famous, I certainly ain't rich
Somewhere in the multiverse, I must have left my mark
But back here in reality, I'm tumbling in the dark
I heard that I should always do the things I love the most
I've tried that several times, but I always end up toast
Whoever said that is an ass, don't listen to those jerks
You can't succeed at what you love, that's just how this world works
I've always thought it would work out, but the matrix has a glitch
I thought that I'd be famous, I certainly ain't rich
Somewhere in the multiverse, I must have left my mark
But back here in reality, I'm tumbling in the dark
I guess life really ain't so bad, and fame's a fleeting thing
I have someone who loves me, and treats me like a king
Who cares if I am poor as dirt, I'm happy all the same
And if I had the choice, I must admit, I'd choose the fame
That's a joke
I've always thought it would work out, but the matrix has a glitch
I thought that I'd be famous, I certainly ain't rich
Somewhere in the multiverse, I must have left my mark
But back here in reality, I'm tumbling in the dark
I've always thought it would work out, but the matrix has a glitch
I thought that I'd be famous, I certainly ain't rich
Somewhere in the multiverse, I must have left my mark
But back here in reality, I'm tumbling in the dark
Back here in reality, I'm tumbling in the dark
