I never cared to be a football star  Kick a leather bag of wind around the park (in the rain)  Wouldn't feel right drivin' a train  But there's got to be something I can claim  My fifteen minutes of fame, fifteen minutes of fame  If I put my head down and work real hard  Maybe I can learn how to play guitar  Write me a hit on MTV  Every woman in the world will wanna know about me  And my fifteen minutes of fam eetc....  I don't need forever in the public eye  Just a little time in the sun  Gimme a shot, watch me shine  I'm the one, now tell me where do I sign?  Some folkns make it big and throw it all away  I got a plan - I wouldn't work another day  Livin' in the lap of luxury  Your nine-hundred second celebrity  My fifteen minutes, fifteen minutes, gimme  fifteen minutes of fame
