"What More Could You Want" lyrics

"What More Could You Want"

Standing in a bathroom mirror
Wondering how I wound up here
Another night, another beer
Hope this lipstick doesn't smear
Waiting for the light to glow
Wondering if the crowd will show
It's not easy-come or easy-go
When you're in the spotlight all alone

I'll do the dance, I'll watch the curtain close
But I just wanna know

Is it ever enough?
Tell me, am I too much?
Do I need more sequins?
Do you need more reasons
To keep showing up for me?
'Cause stars, they burn out
And glitter's just dust
Am I not what you thought?
I've given all that I've got
What more could you want?

I'll start it off with a bang
Make 'em laugh and do my thing
Play their favorite song to sing
Hope that they don't forget my name
I'll blow a kiss and take a bow
See ya when I'm back in town
To give it up, I don't know how
Call it quits when I'm six feet down

I've done the dance, I'll watch the curtain close
Now I wanna know

Is it ever enough?
Tell me, am I too much?
Do I need more sequins?
Do you need more reasons
To keep showing up for me?
'Cause stars, they burn out
And glitter's just dust
Am I not what you thought?
I've given all that I've got
What more could you want?

'Cause stars, they burn out
And glitter's just dust
Am I not what you thought?
I've given all that I've got
What more could you want?
Is it ever enough?
Tell me, am I too much?
Do I need more sequins?
Do you need more reasons
To keep showing up for me?
'Cause stars, they burn out
And glitter's just dust
Am I not what you thought?
I've given all that I've got
What more could you want?

I'll stay up late 'til 3 a.m.
Tomorrow, do it all again
Oh, the applause, I'll never get enough
What more could I want?
What more could I want?
