"That's Showbiz Baby" lyrics

You spun my wheels for years and years
Until they burned right down to the rubber
Now you're watching me on your big screen TV
Getting telephone calls from your mother
And you're so vain, I bet you think I still waste years on you
Well, baby, that's my cue

Bet you didn't know I was a big ol' star
And I glued rhinestones to my broken heart
That crowd won't wait, these thumps don't twiddle
I ain't one for settling for second fiddle
I told you goodbye with my hair held high
Now my left hand's got a new shine
Pardon my roses, that showbiz

Baby, at first there were stars in my eyes
Until the spotlight showed you true colors
You're a good for nothin' cocktail ride
Just a two-time and one-hit wonder
You know what they say, beauty is pain
So when you see my name in lights
Hope it's enough to make a grown man cry

I bet you didn't know I was a big ol' star
And I glued rhinestones to my broken heart
That crowd won't wait, these thumps don't twiddle
I ain't one for settling for second fiddle
I told you goodbye with my hair held high
Now my left hand's got a new shine
Pardon my roses, that showbiz
Baby

I bet you didn't know I was a big ol' star
And I glued rhinestones to my broken heart
That crowd won't wait, these thumps don't twiddle
I ain't one for settling for second fiddle
I told you goodbye with my hair held high
Now my left hand's got a new shine
Pardon my roses, that showbiz, baby
Pardon my roses, that showbiz, baby
