the Night Watchmen - Proof Of Stardom Lyrics




It was the winter of '99
The last time I saw your face
You were filled up with dreams from magazines
Pointing to the posters at the Fairmont Hotel
You said, "I'll be up there someday lookin' like Marilyn Monroe"

Everybody wants to be a somebody
Nobody wants to be a nobody
Everybody wants to be a somebody
Nobody wants to be a nobody

You made it down south in a Chevy with an angel on the dash
Listening to the radio looking for Johnny Cash
There were boys on every corner and girls with yellow hair
All dreaming of celebrity and wanting a bigger share

Everybody wants to be a somebody
Nobody wants to be a nobody
Everybody wants to be a somebody
Nobody wants to be a nobody

You lived for big headlines on the local TV news
But fifteen famous minutes wasn't enough for you
So you begged and you gambled to be on the screen
When did you realize there was so much more to be seen?

I read the news today, oh boy
About a lucky girl who became a star
Her name you may not recognize
But if you want proof of stardom look out into the night

Everybody wants to be a somebody
But nobody wants to be a nobody
Everybody wants to be a somebody
Nobody wants to be a nobody
Everybody wants to be a somebody
Nobody wants to be a nobody
Everybody wants to be a somebody
Nobody wants to be a nobody
