In my heyday
Young girls wrote to me
Everybody seemed to have time
To devote to me
Everyone I saw
Oh, swore they knew me
Once upon a song
Main attraction
Couldn't buy a seat
This celebrity
Celebrities were dying to meet
I've had every accolade
Be stopped on me
And so you see
If I never sing another song
It wouldn't bother me
I had my share of fame
You know my name
You know my name
If I never sing another song
Or take another bow
I would get by
But I'm not sure
Always posing
But you love it all
Though you have to learn
To act like a man
Act like you're above it all
Everything I did
The world applauded
Once upon a star
Framed citation
Hung on every wall
Got a scrapbook full of quotes
I can recall them all
There were times I felt
The world belonged to me
And so you see
And so you see
If I never sing another song
It wouldn't bother me
I had my share of fame
You know my name
If I never sing another song
Or take another bow
It wouldn't bother me
And so you see
I had my share of fame
I told you soiree
You all made me hairy
You all made me attractive
A violent delirium
I say you know me
People call me a zombie
And I'm afraid I don't know you
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
