Everywhere I go and everyone I see
Wants to be famous for the weirdest thing
Like taking their pants off over their heads
Or pretending to be Xi Jinping
Me, I got my picture taken
Me, I got my picture taken
You and me in a pas de deux
Me, I got my picture taken
Me, I got my picture taken
Me and you in a field of view
Everyone I know has got to be a star
With people hanging on their every word
Just wanna famous for being famous
Yeah it's all so completely absurd
Here we are on our very first date
Standing high atop the Empire State
You, you got your brow slightly furled
But me, I'm on top of the world
I don't care for what other people do
It all seems like so much desperation
All I want is to be with you
You're the only one in this whole nation
