Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everybody want to be a star
Livin' in the limelight
A big house and a fancy car
Livin' in the limelight
[Verse 2]
Everybody gonna know your name
Surely pleased to meet you
Ask you for your autograph
See the latest feature
[Verse 3]
In the middle of a midnight dream
Livin' in the limelight
See yourself on the silver screen
Livin' in the limelight
[Verse 4]
How you gonna keep 'em down on the farm
Never make 'em happy
How you gonna keep 'em close to home
Everybody's leavin', headin' for Hollywood
[Verse 5]
Everybody has a fantasy
Living in the limelight
A personality
Livin' in the limelight
[Verse 6]
Hypnotizing the roar of the crowd
Never heard of stage-fright
First one back for the curtain call
Fall in love with the spotlight
[Verse 7]
On the cover of a magazine
Livin' in the limelight
In your limousine
Livin' in the limelight
[Verse 8]
How you gonna keep 'em down on the farm
Never make 'em happy
How you gonna keep 'em close to home
Everybody's leavin', headin' for Hollywood
[Verse 9]
Everybody want to be a star
Livin' in the limelight
A big house and a fancy car
Livin' in the limelight
[Verse 10]
Everybody's gonna know your name
Livin' in the limelight
Say, gonna be pleased to meet ya
(Oh) Livin' in the limelight
[Verse 11]
Livin' in the lime, livin' in the limelight
Livin' in the limelight
Move out to Hollywood, be a star
Livin' in the limelight
Feels so good, no
Livin' in the limelight
Be pleased to meet ya
