Chris Thomas - Stardom In Acton lyrics

Stardom in Acton, that's all they got Stardom in Acton, that's all they got Stardom in Acton, that's all they got Just like the grub that wriggles to the top of the ma** I'm the first to get hooked Just like the stub of that long cigarette full of hash I'm the last to get booked But I'm capable My love's inescapable Conquering lethargy I've got energy (Stardom) I want a hit Want my tan, want my cash, want my innocence (Stardom) I want a script Want my band, want my stash, want omnipotence I'll go where the senescent soldier retires And shiver in south California Watching the storms and the tangling wires And rivers that meet on the corner Like some prostitute Handing 'round the loot I am not ashamed I will stake a claim (Stardom) Born in a trunk Got my home, got my car, got stability (Stardom) I'm Hollywood's son All alone don't admire anonymity I'm so angry that you turned me on I didn't remain your friend too long I'm so angry that you turned me on I didn't stay your friend for too long I'm so angry that you let me see My totally futile destiny I'm so angry, you interrupted my dream Now I know that the power rests in me (Stardom) I want a hit Want my tan, want my cash, want my innocence (Stardom) I want a script Want my band, want my stash, want omnipotence (Stardom) Born in a trunk Got my home, got my car, got stability (Stardom) But I'm Hollywood's son All alone don't admire anonymity Stardom in Acton, that's all they got Stardom in Acton, that's all they got Stardom in Acton, that's all they got Stardom in Acton, that's all they got Stardom Stardom
