��Mine is the story of a record star��The world at my feet, but I come to cry��Thanks to the riches that have come my way��I can walk carpet to carpet��I can swim down at my pool��I can throw expensive parties��Yes, afford to be a fool��There are girls round every corner��But the only one to be��Just a partner for a short time��To the idol that is me��That's what is missing, something genuine��To make old records look like bits of tin��But I guess that's just too much for me to ask��I can walk carpet to carpet��I can swim down at my pool��I can throw expensive parties��Yes, afford to be a fool��There are girls round every corner��But the only one to be��Just a partner for a short time��To the idol that is me��There are girls round every corner��But the only one to be��Just a partner for a short time��To the idol that is me��Just a partner for a short time�
