lyrics

HOLY MOSES, YOU'RE NOT JOSEPH
SELFISH FOCUS, IS YOUR PRIMARY MOTIVE
BECAUSE WHEN YOU START, YOU CAN'T STOP, YOU'LL BE DOING IT TILL THE DAY YOU DROP
YEAH WHEN YOU START, YOU CAN'T STOP, IN THE NAME OF FAME RIGHT TO THE TOP

STONE COLD LONDON, HAS BROUGHT YOU UNDONE
THAT ENDLESS HUMDRUM, HAS DRAGGED YOU DOWN RIGHT DOWN TO BEDLEM
BECAUSE WHEN YOU START, YOU CAN'T STOP, YOU'LL BE DOING IT TILL THE DAY YOU DROP
YEAH WHEN YOU START, YOU CAN'T STOP, IN THE NAME OF FAME RIGHT TO THE TOP

IT'S NOT ABOUT THE WAY YOU PLAY
IT'S NOT ABOUT THE WAY YOU SING
YOU WILL TEAR DOWN EVERYTHING
THAT TRIES TO STAND UP IN YOUR WAY
IN THE NAME OF FAME

BECAUSE WHEN YOU START, YOU CAN'T STOP, YOU'LL BE DOING IT TILL THE DAY YOU DROP
YEAH WHEN YOU START, YOU CAN'T STOP, IN THE NAME OF FAME RIGHT TO THE TOP
