歌詞
[Verse 1]
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 I.V., baby, could I bear!
Being away from you, I found the vein, put it in here!
[PreChorus]
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!
[PreChorus]
Give me that thing that I love! (I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch! (Make it real loud!)
Give me that thing that I love! (I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch! (Make it real loud!)
[Chorus]
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch!
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch!
[Verse 2]
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!
Pop culture was in art, now art's in pop culture in me!
[PreChorus]
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!
[PreChorus]
Give me that thing that I love! (I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch! (Make it real loud!)
Give me that thing that I love! (I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch! (Make it real loud!)
[Chorus]
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch!
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch!
[Bridge]
Ooh, touch, touch
Touch, touch now
[PreChorus]
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!
[PreChorus]
Give me that thing that I love! (I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch! (Make it real loud!)
Give me that thing that I love! (I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch! (Make it real loud!)
[Chorus]
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch!
Make it real loud!
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch!
