Verse 1<\/p>\n
You’re just a regular girl, in a regular job
\nServing regular customers in a regular shop
\nOn the surface you seem fine but inside you think
\nDeep down “There’s got to be more to life than this”
\nAnd there is – you could be anything that you please
\nAnd you don’t need skill, just the will to succeed
\nIf you take my advice then you’re gonna go far
\nWhat’s my name? I’m Fame and I can make you a star
\nFirst off get on a talent contest on the telly
\nIt doesn’t matter whether you’ve actually got any
\nJust tell a sob story that touches the crowd
\nAnd the judges are bound to put you through to the next round
\nYou don’t even need to try and win the competition
\nCoz you’ve done enough already to secure your position
\nIn all the magazines and the pages within
\nAnd this is where your plan for world domination begins<\/p>\n
Chorus<\/p>\n
When you dance with the devil you dance to his song
\nBut a dance with the devil doesn’t last for long
\nWhen you dance with the devil you’re taking a chance
\nCoz when the music stops playing – so does the dance<\/p>\n
Do some interviews so people know who you are
\nEnough to get you in the clubs and exclusive bars
\nCos this is where you can really raise your profile
\nThere’s paparazzi crawling everywhere – so smile!
\nThe next step is to start dating a dude
\nWho’s at least the same, if not more famous than you
\nIf he’s a rapper or actor then you won’t have failed
\nBut a football player is really the holy grail
\nYou’ve hit the big time now – you’ve finally made it
\nYou’ve even got your own clothes line and personalised fragrance
\nYou can’t go out without shades and a beanie
\nOr on holiday without being snapped in your bikini
\nBut this is what you wanted – it’s nothing you can’t handle
\nAnd nothing says publicity, like a little scandal
\nSo what hits the headlines the very next day?
\nA sex tape of you and your boyfriend’s best mate!<\/p>\n
Chorus<\/p>\n
When you dance with the devil you dance to his song
\nBut a dance with the devil doesn’t last for long
\nWhen you dance with the devil you’re taking a chance
\nCoz when the music stops playing – so does the dance<\/p>\n
Well that backfired I have to say
\nWho’d have thought that the public would react that way?
\nI mean the fact that he dumped you is no surprise
\nBut I guess it’s coz he missed that penalty you’re so despised
\nAh well there’s plenty more fish in the sea
\nHave a drink on me, in fact here – have three
\nAw don’t cry, here wipe those tears right up
\nAnd take a couple of these, they’re bound to cheer you up\u2026
\nBoy, what a difference a couple of months make
\nI hope you’re happy now – you’re still on the front page
\nBut this time it’s all the wrong sort of attention
\nWhat were you thinking punching that toilet attendant?!
\nThe court case took all the cash in the bank
\nFace it, you’re washed up – a flash in the pan
\nYou had a good run but now it’s over completely
\nI gotta go – there’s a new boy band that needs me<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
