He doesn't know he doesn't care * His eyes are fixed in a distant stare * His thoughts must be a million miles away * And you'll find him in the same place everyday
To see him now you wouldn't know * He once had his own TV show * And back then everybody knew his name * Just another one to pay the price of fame
CHORUS * Fame is the only way to go * To hear their record on the radio * Or see their picture in Hello * And never pay the price of fame * No they'll never pay the price of fame
They'll throw a coin as they pass him by * But they'll never look him in the eye * It's better to avoid him if you can * And no one wants to know a sad old man
But his life was a different colour then * They all wanted to know him when * An invitation to The Party Game * Was the currency that bought that touch of fame
CHORUS * Guitar Break * Repeat 1st verse
