The fear

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I wanna be rich and I want lots of money

I don't care about clever I don't care about funny

I want loads of clothes and fuckloads of diamonds

I heard people die while they are trying to find them

And I'll take my clothes off and it will be shameless

Cause everyone knows this is how you get famous

I'll look at The Sun and I'll look in The Mirror

I'm on the right track yeah I'm onto a winner

I don't know what's right and what's real anymore

And I don't know how I'm meant to feel anymore

When do you think it will all become clear

Cause I'm being taken over by the fear

Life's about film stars and less about mothers

It's all about fast cars and cussing each other

But it doesn't matter cause I'm packing plastic

And that's what makes my life so fucking fantastic

And I am a weapon of massive consumption

And it's not my fault it's how I'm programmed to function

I'll look at The Sun and I'll look in The Mirror

I'm on the right track yeah we're onto a winner

I don't know what's right and what's real anymore

And I don't know how I'm meant to feel anymore

When do you think it will all become clear

Cause I'm being taken over by the fear

Forget about guns and forget ammunition

Cause I'm killing them all on my own little mission

Now I'm not a saint but I'm not a sinner

Now everything's cool as long as I'm getting thinner

I don't know what's right and what's real anymore

And I don't know how I'm meant to feel anymore

When do you think it will all become clear

Cause I'm being taken over by the fear
