Lyrics Fifteen Minutes - Kirsty MacColl

Fifteen Minutes

Seven times in seven days
Ive sat and wished my life away
I know the greyness comes and goes
But the sun dont shine
And the snow dont snow
Theres suzy-ann with her tits and curls
Where mediocrity excels
For those vicious boys and their boring girls
You know it makes me sick but its a bozos world
Then theres always the cash
Selling yourself for some trash
Smiling at people that you cannot stand
Youre in demand
Your fifteen minutes start now
City banker looks are in The heartless heart, the chinless chin
And youd spill your beans for just a pint of gin
How you got so holy
And became so thin
In sunday papers every week
The silly words you love to speak
The tacky photos and the phoney smiles
Well its a bozos world and youre a bozos child
Then theres always the cash
Selling yourself for some trash
Smiling at people that you cannot stand
Youre in demand
Your fifteen minutes start now
Then theres always the fame!
Autographs now and again
People who saw you on blankety blank
Or in the bank
Your fifteen minutes start now
