Paragraph Lyric
(Kirsty MacColl)Seven times in seven daysI've sat and wished my life awayI know the greyness comes and goesBut the sun don't shineAnd the snow don't snowThere's Suzy-Ann with her tits and curlsWhere mediocrity excelsFor those vicious boys and their boring girlsYou know it makes me sick but it's a bozo's worldThen there's always the cashSelling yourself for some trashSmiling at people that you cannot standYou're in demandYour fifteen minutes start nowCity banker looks are inThe heartless heart, the chinless chinAnd you'd spill your beans for just a pint of ginHow you got so holyAnd became so thinIn Sunday papers every weekThe silly words you love to speakThe tacky photos and the phoney smilesWell it's a bozo's worldAnd you're a bozo's childThen there's always the cashSelling yourself for some trashSmiling at people that you cannot standYou're in demandYour fifteen minutes start nowThen there's always the fame!Autographs now and againPeople who saw you on Blankety BlankOr in the bankYour fifteen minutes start now
