STAR PEOPLE
George Michael
Older (1996)

Maybe, your mama gave you up boy
Maybe, your Daddy didn't love you enough girl

Star people
Counting your money until your soul turns green
Star people
Counting the cost of your desire to be seen

I do not count myself among you
I may be living in a dream
It's just there seems so many of you
Can't help but hope
There's a difference between...
You and me

You're a star ooh, I'm talking to you
You're a star yeah, and you should go far

Maybe your mama gave you up boy It's the same old same old
Maybe your daddy didn't love you enough girl
How much is enough?

Star people
Never forget your secret safe with me
Just look at all wonderful people
Trying to forget they had to pay for what you see

It's a dream

With a nightmare stuck in the middle
But listen brother where would you be?
Without all of that attention
You'd die
I'd die
We'd die, wouldn't we? Well wouldn't we?
You're a star ooh, I'm talking to you
You're a star talking to you

Maybe, your mama gave you up boy
Maybe, your Daddy didn't love you enough girl

You only wanted them to love you
You may have been living in a dream
And as the demons tower above you
You bite your tongue
When you really wanna scream

Maybe, mama
Maybe how much is enough?

Maybe, Daddy look at me
Maybe

I said
Talk about your mother
Talk about your father
Talk about the people
Who have made you what you are
Talk about your teacher
The bully boy who beat you
Talk about the people who have paid
For that new sports car

You're a big, big, big, big star
Look at you

How much is enough

Did you get off on a bad foot, baby
Do you have a little tale to tell
Is that why you're a star?
Is that what makes a star?

Nothing comes for nothing, baby
That fame and fortune's heaven sent
And who gives a fuck about your problems, darling
When you can pay the rent
How much is enough?
