Mine is the story of a record star The world at my feet, but I've come too far Thanks to the riches that have come my way I can walk carpet to carpet I can swim down at my pool I can throw expensive parties Yes, I'm born to be a fool There are girls round every corner But the only one to me Just a partner for a short time To the idol that is me That's what is missing Something genuine To make old records look like bits of tin But I guess that's just too much for me to ask I can walk carpet to carpet I can swim down at my pool I can throw expensive parties Yes, I'm born to be a fool There are girls round every corner But the only one to me Just a partner for a short time To the idol that is me There are girls round every corner But the only one to me Just a partner for a short time To the idol that is me To the idol that is me
