about

A song about aspirations that go too far

lyrics

Old friend you love to tell me stories
Of how you want to change your world
Of plans to rise to higher glories
Of targets reached and tables turned

And now you're sitting watching television
With thousands sitting watching you

You're hoping they'll idolise you
Success will lead t greater things
They'll either love you or despise you
|They'll lift you up or clip your wings

And now you're sitting on the island
And now you're sleeping with the stars
With people wondering what you'll get up to next
You dine on quail and caviar

On every billboard
On ever street
Your face looks out at the people you thought you'd never meet

And now you tell me you're an astronaut
And that you're on your way to Mars
But did they tell you that it's a one way trip
And you'll be resting with the stars?
