Star - Saint Etienne

Does it pay to be so good?

Spend my whole life doing all that pays

He said I should, all the time

See the people having all the big fun

That could be mine

Should be mine

Now I want to be a star

For the girl who’s got it made

Living in Primrose Hill up party place

To play Manet

You and I, saw your face in magazines and told you

I said you’d be mine, and you’d be mine

Now I want to be

Yeah I want to be a star

A star

Have time to think about it

Told my friends a lot about it

Had enough of their moody faces

Don’t love those untidy places

I knew, I new, yeah

Does it pay to be so good?

Spend my whole life doing all those things

They said I should

Now I’m gonna be

Yeah I’m gonna be a star

Does it pay to be so good, to be a star

I said, does it pay to be so good, to be a star

I told you, yeah, I told you, to be a star

You should have listened, to be a star

To be a star
