[ti:Superstar]
[ar:lupe fiasco]
[00:15.292] If you are what you say you are
[00:19.305] A super star
[00:21.802] Then have no fear the camera's here
[00:26.734] and the microphone and they wanna know
[00:32.164] Oh oh oh oh
[00:34.569] Yea uh
[00:35.994] A fresh cool young Lu
[00:38.239] Trying to cash his microphone check 212
[00:40.639] Want to believe my own hype but it's too untrue
[00:43.224] The world brought me to my knees
[00:44.748] What have you brung you
[00:45.796] Did you improve on the design
[00:47.269] Did you do something new
[00:48.400] Well your name ain't on the guest list
[00:49.885] Who brung you you
[00:50.905] The more famous person you come through
[00:53.189] And the sexy lady next to you
[00:55.04] You come to
[00:55.779] And then it hit me
[00:56.838] Standing outside of heaven waiting for god to come and get me
[00:59.773] Im too uncouth
[01:00.884] Unschooled to the rules
[01:02.406] And two gum shoe
[01:03.471] Too much of a newcomer
[01:04.977] And too uncool
[01:06.61] Like Shadow and Lavelle
[01:07.366] I battle with it well
[01:08.642] Though I need a holiday like lady who song blue
[01:10.937] Go back what ever you did you undo
[01:13.714] Heavy is heaven
[01:14.574] The devil on my two tons too
[01:16.114] If you are what you say you are
[01:19.631] A super star
[01:22.567] Then have no fear the camera's here
[01:26.866] and the microphone and they wanna know
[01:32.429] Oh oh oh oh
[01:36.344] And you better wear your shades
[01:37.602] The spotlights here can burn holes through the stage
[01:40.254] Down through the basement
[01:41.630] Passed the Indian graves
[01:42.581] Where the dinosaurs laid
[01:43.913] And out through china
[01:45.473] Nearly misses air liners
[01:46.593] Magnified times five
[01:47.460] This is pointed at the rhymer
[01:48.884] Ricochets off the moon and sets the forest a blaze
[01:51.672] Now that's important to say
[01:53.891] Cuz even with all of that
[01:55.447] Most of us don't want it to fade
[01:57.251] We want it to braid
[01:59.213] Meaning we want it to grow
[02:00.364] Meaning we want it to stay
[02:01.518] Like the governor called
[02:02.431] And they told him to wait
[02:03.914] Un-strap him from the chair
[02:05.724] And put him back in his cage
[02:07.164] The audience ain't fazed
[02:09.265] And they ain't gone clap and they ain't gone praise
[02:11.519] They want everything back that they paid
[02:14.153] Cuz they been waiting since ten to see the lights get dim
[02:16.651] If you are what you say you are
[02:20.548] A super star
[02:23.450] Then have no fear the camera's here
[02:27.824] and the lights are on and they want a show
[02:33.12] Oh oh oh oh
[02:36.929] So chauffeur chauffeur come and take me away
[02:39.557] Cuz I been standing in this line
[02:40.840] For like five whole days
[02:41.946] Me and security ain't getting along
[02:43.578] And when I got to the front they told me all of the tickets were gone
[02:47.136] So just take me home where the mood is mellow
[02:49.577] And the roses are thrown
[02:50.521] M&M's are yellow
[02:52.197] And the light bulbs around my mirror don't flicker
[02:54.101] Everybody gets a nice autograph picture
[02:57.603] One for you and one for your sister
[02:59.795] Who had to work tonight but is an avid listener
[03:02.431] Every songs a favorite song
[03:03.802] And mikes don't feed back
[03:04.815] All the reviewers say you need to go and see that
[03:07.518] And everybody claps cuz everybody is pleased
[03:09.999] Then they all take the stage and start performing for me
[03:12.383] Like ha ha hahaha
[03:15.265] Ha ha hahaha ha
[03:17.262] If you are what you say you are
[03:20.584] A super star
[03:23.543] Then have no fear the camera's here
[03:28.391] and the microphone and they wanna know
[03:33.811] Oh oh oh oh
[03:37.266] If you are what you say you are
[03:49.145] Then have no fear
