There's no time to phone home   When you're racin', you're on time   You contemplate, you gotta wait your own turn      Up the noise with some poison, with great poise   You can't compare it too, or let it scare you through   If everything you do is not as smoothly as we planned   You gotta understand:    There is more for you   But all you gotta do, ooh   Is put yourself with the people   They're the ones who make the world spin   Lust in favor, you can win      And you'll take home the gold medallion   And ride the wobbly wave of fame   That is why you came    That is why you   Came to your senses   To feel it out   And try to kill off every dial   Your mother worries, but no one worries quite like you   And when you start you must rely on your own heart   Cause nothing works the same or takes the blame or wins the game   With your head in your hands in the pouring rain   I wanna see you as you are   Like a lonely star   There is more for you   But all you gotta do, ooh   Is put yourself with the people   They're the ones who make the world spin    Lust in favor, you can win      And you'll take home the gold medallion    And ride the wobbly wave of fame    That is why you came   That is why you came       You gotta be so strong   You gotta teach your son    How to stand up straight    When you wanna run   How to carry on   How to be yourself   To be different...but the same       That is why you came.
