This is a song for all of my close friends Anonymous neighbors with stories to tell I didn't realize I had so many close friends nameless and shameless with hear say to sell. What's the fuss? You've gotta be in it to win it I want pride but I know I'll never get it Fame, I wanna live for 15 minutes I want love but my hearts not in it If only it was lonely at the top, I've got too much, but its never enough, If only it was lonely at the top, If only it was lonely at the top. Oh oh, oh oh. This is a song for all the complainers All the campaigners who will not give up They're selling their souls just to wear their sunglasses They say "stop the press, I want to get off" What's the fuss? I've gotta be in it to win it I want pride but I know il never get it Shame, I wanna live for 15 minutes I want love but my hearts not in it If only it was lonely at the top I've got too much, but its never enough, If only it was lonely at the top, If only it was lonely What's the fuss? You've gotta be in it to win it I want pride but I know I'll never get it Fame, I wanna live for 15 minutes I want love but my hearts not in it. Oh oh, oh oh If only it was lonely at the top, I've got too much but its never enough, If only it was lonely at the top, If only it was lonely at the top, If only it was lonely Oh oh, oh oh If only
