Lyrics:

Intro:

Fame's what she's wanting

not a face in the crowd

just a disposable popstar

Verse1:

Starring down from thirty thousand feet above the planet

she gets the sense nothings behind her anymore.

Her quest for fame has left her nothing short of a fanatic

for the chance to be the one that we adore.

Chorus:

Fame's what shes wanting

you cant go too far

cause thats who we are.

Fame's what she's wanting

not a face in the crowd

just a disposable popstar.

Verse2:

They called her princess cause they always knew she'd be a servant

never having an ambition in her life.

They all knew she'd end up just another loser's girlfriend

who'd have thought that she'd become a jeti knight.

reapeat chorus

For the bridge just sing

"popstar" over 4x

Sing the chorus one last time.

Well thats it. hope this tab is right and have fun.
