Boys, all sing in bands these days.
Dreams, they're built with prime time noise.
So they, stand in line for ten minutes of show time.
It's more important to be seen,
Than to be heard these days.
How they know.
It pays.
So they say, it's what they live for when the camera's,
Rolling on, they'll go on any TV show.
Where they'll sing and dance, and do it all in vain.
All made easy, thanks to instafame.
Buy, your place in tabloids.
Loved by foolish girls and boys.
I know what you are going through.
I've been what you have been through.
Reality judges, they talking smack.
You call that talent, they just end up as.
E-list celebrities peddling dud advice.
Building egos just with their eyes,
You would think they're blind.
But they still lap it up,
While I laugh it up.
So they say, it's what they live for when the camera's,
Rolling on, they'll go on any TV show.
Where they'll sing and dance, and do it all in vain.
All made easy, thanks to instafame.
They say do anything to make it.
Go on these shows I'm sure you'll lose face.
Limelight it shines, they turn to divas,
Three months to pop stars then they'll melt down.
Cause instafame makes names only to stake claims on them.
Grown men and women taking orders.
Lasts only two years then they're all tears.
Cause instafame makes names only to stake claims on them.
And that's the way it's always gonna be.
