Reality Mentality

Wanna be a star
Well just lower the bar
Humiliation becomes routine
What you’re playin’ out on your TV screen
You say: “hey, look at me” (hey, look at me)
The famous chickie
Competin’ for a post on my thousand block
Uppin’ the ante for celebutante
Reality mentality (reality mentality)
Reality mentality (reality mentality)
Did you look today?
You can’t look away
It’s getting’ shticky out there
Now it’s buyer beware
Stone machinery is employed
You say, “hey, enjoy the show”
And shut employed
It’s a reality mentality (reality mentality)
Reality mentality (reality mentality)
Did you look today?
You can’t look away
It’s demeaning
Needs depleting
Dramatize and stylize for a price
A fame and misfortune, a guise of life
You live reality mentality (reality mentality)
Reality mentality (reality mentality)
Reality mentality
