writers should write and singers should sing
that’s how it ought to be
but I have to be a singer/songwriter
apparently
Story behind the song
"In the future everyone will be world famous for fifteen minutes" - Andy Warhol
Lyrics
15 Minutes of Fame
They say
in the future we'll claim
15 minutes of fame
Andy Warhol's to blame
They say
that we'll all be a star
be idolised from afar
for 15 minutes of fame
I'll go for wine and song and romance
when, at last, I get my chance
I'll take the applause
treasure the tears
savoir the moment
for so many years
I can't believe it's true
(it's coming soon, coming soon)
and the time is surely due
so take my hand, the future's planned
They say
in the future we'll claim
15 minutes of fame
Andy Warhol's to blame
They say
that we'll all be a star
be idolised from afar
for 15 minutes of fame
