the star struck banner þarký sözü

there´s entertainment news on the hotel tv
they run it for 24 hours
where stars discuss celebrity
and celebrities talk about stars
and who´s having who on so and so´s set
the lifestyles of the rich and useless
from queen julia down to king kong
they got everybody singing that song
but everybody´s got it wrong

it makes me stutter, makes me stammer
so let´s fly it high
the star-struck banner
here´s how it works and here´s a spanner
stick it in!

i know that woman and she can´t act
and i know who bought her breasts
once she wanted to get to grips with me
now she can´t get me off her chest
i saw the photos of their wedding day
now she´s another gay divorcee
well, they can blame it on the media but i´m not buying
all their crocodile tears or their wolf crying
if you get it and you don´t want it
then you´re not trying

it makes me stutter, makes me stammer
so let´s fly it high
the star-struck banner
here´s how it works and here´s a spanner
stick it in!

i read the papers, looking for the news
all i see is excuses for irrelevance
if you thought no-one was dying then you´d be excused
it´s an insult to the unintelligent
(i burned bright for ten minutes one night
with a girl who had a bit part in... who cares?
but my hard work failed when she checked my sales
and threw me down the stairs)

me, i´m just an armchair outlaw
trying to make ends meet
but when i try a little psycho maths
well it knocks me off my feet
i´ve heard there´s no gods left anymore
so what do we wanna make these new ones for?
we´ll just say our prayers like we know we should
get on our knees and pray to holywood
but it ain´t gonna do us no good

it makes me stutter, makes me stammer
so let´s fly it high
the star-struck banner
here´s how it works and here´s a spanner
stick it in!
