When I Get Famous lyrics

[Intro]
There's diamonds hiding in my hands
They're gonna cut through the windows
Ain't no one messing with my plans
Right now my star is in limbo
Sit back and watch my scrawny frame
Invade your feelings
All the years you caused me pain
I've got some wounds that need healin'

[Verse 1]
Well you were just too damn aloof
Wearing your Morrissey t-shirt
The kind of girl that's born for youth
Well that's a blessing and some curse
I tell you son beware of those
Who peak too early
Cause all that magic can't be froze
And now it's you who ain't worthy

[Chorus]
So baby when I get famous
Everybody's gonna see
Oh oh oh oh
You never really knew me
[Verse 2]
Does it make sense to simplify
Now we're knotted in riddles
But I don't care, do you know why?
The girls are falling like skittles
Whoever said you needed rights
To tame your beauty
I'll say goodbye to lonely nights
Girls form an orderly queue please

[Chorus]
So baby when I get famous
Everybody's gonna see
Oh oh oh oh
You never really knew me

[Hammond-Solo]

[Verse 3]
So given knowledge, given time
I'd take us out of recession
I'd tell the world that all was fine
And that the freedom's a blessing
Cause when I'm looking from the top
You'll all seem smaller
Ain't that what all us humans want?
To stand that little bit taller
[Chorus/Outro x5]
So baby when I get famous
Everybody's gonna see
Oh oh oh oh
You never really knew me
