The B-list
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.
Take another hundred names
And put 'em on a list
And curse yourself for ever watching it
I'm not gonna have to see it to the end
'Cause the fastest rat is always gonna win
You've gotta know the hustle
To make it in this town
'Cause competition's stiff as ever now
Take another hundred
And put it in her hand
Present the prize and not the ambulance
You've got a certain spark
You've got to show it off
What are you waiting for?
They've been expecting you
Have got the brightest spark
Don't let them blow it out
What are you waiting for?
They've been expecting your call
She walks on red carpets all the time
In my eyes
Others will scoff at her clothes coming off
They will talk, let 'em talk
Because you've given them just what they want
Harder than a drama
Softer than a porn
Oh come on, fill that purse a little more
You got something special (You got something special)
Put it on the air (Put it on the air)
Humiliation pays well by the tear
You've got a certain spark
You've got to show it off
What are you waiting for?
They've been expecting you
What have you been waiting for?
They've been expecting your call
She walks on red carpets all the time
In my eyes
Others will scoff at her clothes coming off
They will talk, let 'em talk
Because you've given them just what they want
Given them just what they want
Yeah, you've given them just what they want
He'll do most anything
You'll do most anything
For the camera
A mil for a wedding ring
A thou for embarrassing yourself
Keep that camera rolling, baby
What are you waiting for?
'Cause we've been waiting for you
What are you waiting for?
Wait for it
She walks on red carpets all the time
In my eyes
In my eyes
Others will scoff at her clothes coming off
They will talk, let them talk
Because you've given them just what they want
She walks on red carpets all the time
In my eyes (Why can't you see what you've become?)
In my eyes
Others will scoff at her clothes coming off
They will talk, let them talk
Because you've given them just what they want
