Well, I've seen my name in lights Where not many came at all
And I played the crowd at beer joints Where it wasn't up at all
It doesn't matter where you see Or who makes the call
You're never really famous Till you make the bathroom call
They misspelled it on the marquee They completely left it all
I've done t-shirts, skin, and records Lord knows I've done it all
On a bad night, I give the credit But when it's good, they change
They make it all You know you're never really famous
Till you make the bathroom wall
In some highfalutin' places
They don't remember me at all But I'm there under fresh paint
You'll see me when it peels off
What counts is the thought I should be honored to make the stall
You're never really famous
Until you make the bathroom wall
They misspelled it on the marquee They completely left it all
I've done t-shirts, skin, and records Lord knows I've done it all
On a bad night, I give the credit But when it's good, they change


They misspelled it on the marquee They completely left it all

On a bad night, I give the credit But when it's good, they change
They take it all You know you're never really famous
Till you make the bathroom wall
It's the thought that counts I should be honored to make the stall
Cause you're never really famous
Until you make the bathroom wall
