.....Words and music by Katisse
.....©2007 Look Further Music BMI
You strung 15 minutes together on the famous playlist it pains
to say this reality shows them you’re going down as fast as you
rose the trust reposed upon you from an adoring public they
gobble you up like a pup when he’s love sick until the until the
veil is lifted the critical mass and public eye has shifted to the
next willing victim on the fame buffet
Chorus- You’re the next willing victim on the fame buffet (I
claimed a plate but was made to wait)
You’re the next willing victim on the fame buffet (my
personality trait made it hard to relate)
You’re the next willing victim on the fame buffet I claimed a
plate but was made to wait My personality trait made it hard
to relate I’ll try to say it straight and not mince words then it’s
hurts when you’re working with a scalpel but you aren’t a
surgeon for the next little Disney pop tart they thought up they
try to call it art it’s nothing more than a product little chick
with a hit spit out 6 more like it until we get sick of the hype
shit a tight fit of life scripts the knife slips a sign of the times
or a sign of the apocalypse all the while we’re smitten sittin in
a prison of voyeurism cuz we’re the next will victim on the fame
buffet
Chorus
Look fool a window to look through you got nothing better to
do than watch a woman cook food but hold on she’s cookin
without a shirt on it’s a turn on let’s give her a network show
and assert our constitutional right to be completely idle you might
have time to kill but I don’t with a flick of the wrist this is risk
with a twist I have to insist to inspire and uplift all the clues refuse
it check out the exponent of modern music when you’re hearing
the sound I got my ear to ground forever head honcho and I track
like Tonto when things get risky then who could this be I burn like
whiskey but I don’t need to drink this for you to relinquish control
of your senses look at life for a moment thru rose colored lenses the
path of the sage without diamonds or Benzes inner connection is
free but expensive….inner connection is free but expensive…..but
you’re the next willing victim on the fame buffet
