[Verse 1]
Well those fancy folks in Hollywood, they have a real good time
Exclusive parties where they dress all funny and drink expensive wine
Well, the young girl watches TV and thinks that life could be mine
In the land of opportunity, she wants to use that hope to shine
They tell you you can achieve your dreams no matter who you are
They say, "hey little man from Middle America, you'll be a rising star!"
They'll show you all their adoring fans and a garage of fancy cars
With a story about how they come from nothing and worked so very hard
[Chorus]
I don't hurt people, I don't tell lies
When I see that look in a young star's eyes
I can wish them luck but don't pick that life for me
I don't hurt people, I don't tell lies
When I see that look in a young star's eyes
I can wish them luck but don't pick that life for me
[Verse 2]
Now what they don't tell you is you need connections to be that star you love
You need to have a rich mom and dad and to be from Los Angeles
Someone you know's in the industry of movies, songs, and such
And the nepo babies hardly have to walk before they're known by everyone
Yeah, the 1% of the 1% might have a shot at fame
If the common man passes on their work and shares everything they made
But even then you need to find some fans to make you their saving grace
Yeah, you need to appeal to just everyone and sacrifice your creative ways
Well those fancy folks in Hollywood, they have a real good time
Exclusive parties where they dress all funny and drink expensive wine
Well, the young girl watches TV and thinks that life could be mine
In the land of opportunity, she wants to use that hope to shine
They tell you you can achieve your dreams no matter who you are
They say, "hey little man from Middle America, you'll be a rising star!"
They'll show you all their adoring fans and a garage of fancy cars
With a story about how they come from nothing and worked so very hard
[Chorus]
I don't hurt people, I don't tell lies
When I see that look in a young star's eyes
I can wish them luck but don't pick that life for me
I don't hurt people, I don't tell lies
When I see that look in a young star's eyes
I can wish them luck but don't pick that life for me
[Verse 2]
Now what they don't tell you is you need connections to be that star you love
You need to have a rich mom and dad and to be from Los Angeles
Someone you know's in the industry of movies, songs, and such
And the nepo babies hardly have to walk before they're known by everyone
Yeah, the 1% of the 1% might have a shot at fame
If the common man passes on their work and shares everything they made
But even then you need to find some fans to make you their saving grace
Yeah, you need to appeal to just everyone and sacrifice your creative ways
