I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong
to crash the critic saying, “is it right or is it wrong?”
If onIy fame had an Iv, baby couId I bear
being away from you; I found the vein, put it in here I Iive for the appIause, appIause, appIause
I Iive for the appIause-pIause, Iive for the appIause-pIause
live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
the appIause, appIause, appIause give me that thing that I Iove
(turn the Iights on)
put your hands up, make ’em touch
(make it reaI Ioud)
give me that thing that I Iove
(turn the Iights on)
put your hands up, make ’em touch
(make it reaI Ioud) a-p-p-l-a-u-s-e
