Lyrics
Mom and dad want a doctor or a lawyer I just think that’s too passé I just want something to make me rich and famous something with some more cache I don’t need to mortgage off my future for some Ivy League degree I just need a scheme to appeal to the masses in this celebrity society Brittney’s hair or poor, Anna Nicole Smiths drama gets more headlines than Darfur A crooked chef spends a few months in striped pajamas Now her net worth only soars! A President, or Governor of California How much higher can you get from “Pumping Iron” or acting with a chimp named Bonzo who’d have thought to make that bet? American Idols, get more votes than politicians Now that’s such a telling sign Instead of lying, get on TV and belt a tune out and watch the voters stand in line Acting school and Golds Gym costs much less than Harvard It’s the only thing that pays An MBA or PhD won’t get you that far In a Celebrity Society! In a Celebrity Society, In a Celebrity Society
