lyrics

My ma don't even recognize me
cause I'm famous
a million to one
even my parents said I couldn't
but I got it done
and all the girls from back home call me all day
tell me that they seen me struttin on there t.v.
and just like that they want to give me play
find it quite amusing how things change
V.I.P, I.P, That's me, Famous
got me on the radio, singing off your stereo
never was the clubbing type
now I'm clubbing every night
you wish you were me
cause nowadays it pays to be famous
L.A., New York, Hong Kong, Vietnam.
They play my song round the world
a million screaming girls
and they all on it.

Cause I'm famous
Fancy Cars, Black credit cards
Baby I'm a, Baby I'm a star
no one knew me but now I'm all up on your c.d.
Working in the studio
pay me for the track
3,4,5 girls in the back.
Don't hate, appreciate
wasn't always this great, don't hate

but now I'm famous
and you know I lost my hold on you baby
sometimes I wish I was back home in your arms
didn't meant to do you harm
I was wrong

but now I'm famous
Fancy Cars, Black credit cards
Baby I'm a, Baby I'm a star
no one knew me but now I'm all up on your c.d.
Working in the studio
pay me for the track
3,4,5 girls in the back.
Don't hate, appreciate
wasn't always this great, don't hate.
but now I'm famous
