Applause (Glee Cast Version)

I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong

To crash the critic saying

"Is it right or is it wrong?"

If only fame had an IV

Baby, could I bear?

(Bear, bear)

Being away from you

I've found the vein, put it in here

I live for the applause, applause, applause

I live for the applause, 'plause

Live for the applause, 'plause

Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me

The applause, applause, applause

Give me that thing that I love

I'll turn the lights on

Put your hands up, make 'em touch (Touch)

Make it real loud

Give me that thing that I love

I'll turn the lights on

Put your hands up, make 'em touch (Touch)

Make it real loud

A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E

(Make it real loud)

A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E

(Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch)

A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E

(Make it real loud)

A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E

(Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch)

I've overheard your theory

Nostalgia's for geeks

I guess sir, if you say so

Some of us just like to read

One second I'm a Koons, then suddenly the Koons is me

(Me, me)

Pop culture was in art

Now art's in pop culture in me

I live for the applause, applause, applause

I live for the applause, 'plause

Live for the applause, 'plause

Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me

The applause, applause, applause

Give me that thing that I love

I'll turn the lights on

Put your hands up, make 'em touch (Touch)

Make it real loud

Give me that thing that I love

I'll turn the lights on

Put your hands up, make 'em touch (Touch)

Make it real loud

A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E

(Make it real loud)

A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E

(Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch)

A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E

A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E

(Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch)

I live for the applause, applause, applause

I live for the applause, 'plause

Live for the applause, 'plause

Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
