I wanna be a pop star (James@War) |
JamesatWar makes a parody of the worst things about pop stars taking bits of information from many different famous singers gone out of hand.
I'm through with living in trailers with my pushy mom,
I'm only nine and she makes me put make-up on,
So I'll grant her her wish and I won't stop till I'm on TV
So tell me what you want
I want a brand new nose and a cleft in my chin
And some breast implants I'll deny I put in
And a teacup poodle that I'm always carrying with me.
Yeah, so what you need?
I'll need a good producer 'cause you know I can't sing
And a lawyer who can get me out of anything
Gonna date Justin Timberlake to gain some credibility.
Been there, done that
I want my own perfume and clothing line
It's all made in sweatshops, but that's just fine
I'll give the child labourers a signed copy of my CD
So how you gonna do it
I'm gonna reestablish the mouseketeers
Start my new life wearing those Mickey ears
'Cause we all just wanna be big popstars
Start out innocent to get my fanbase large
My listeners will be people in their tweens
And old perverts who can't wait till I turn eighteen
And my first hit will be a Disney song
But my good girl image won't last too long
My first album just had some innuendo
But by my third album I'll act like a full blown hoe, well
Hey, hey, I wanna be a pop star
Hey, hey, I wanna be a pop star
I wanna be generic, let the media lead me
Gonna sing canned music that my label feeds me
Oversaturate the market 'till everyone is sick of me
Oh, trust me, it'll happen
I'm gonna dress myself without an ounce of class,
Gonna make the boys all drool and stare at my... Glasses
Gonna hang out with the laughing stock of society
So how you gonna do it?
I'm gonna lose all sense of decency
And sell out all of my integrity
'Cause we all just wanna be big pop stars
Paparazzi gettin' pictures of my implant scars
I'll sleep through the days and party all night long
It's so hard to remember to put panties on
And my male fans will all be crushed
When those photos leak that haven't been airbrushed
I'll marry a loser who just wants my fame
And I'll divorce his sorry butt the very next day
And I'll drop a hint that I'm a lesbian
Hoping that'll jump start my lame career again
I'll pose for magazines like FHM and Marie Claire
Tell 'em 'bout how I'm a Christian in my underwear, well
Hey, hey, I wanna be a pop star
I'm gonna have some babies and then I'll neglect 'em
Hit my mid life crisis when I'm twenty seven
Make sure I'm drunk before I start to drive
Get caught lip syncing on Saturday Night Live
Well we all just wanna be big pop stars
Make abysmal movies and wreck fifteen cars
I'll check into rehab after hitting that tree
Then I'll check out early but be back next week
And they'll finally put me behind bars
With a real short sentence since I am a star
The tabloids will tell 'em that I've lost my flair
When the pressure gets too much well I'll just shave my hair
But I'll work hard to get my life on track
And my fans will all start to accept me back
I'm back on top and selling out my shows
Until my ex releases our sex videos... Well
