15 Minutes
by Patty Pierzchala
lyrics
v1. You've got an addiction
To any and all forms of fiction
Trying to escape reality
Is your worst disposition
So you're an actress and
You do your own worst depiction
A walking contradiction, then again,
What's life without a little friction?
*When life gives you lemons,
You just blame it on the limelight
If it's on TV, it's not reality
You got your citrus lips all puckered up
And you're looking to be freshly squeezed
You just can't see you're based on a true story*
v2. The media people are always talking
'Bout who or what's to blame
But 2 months ago, you were begging
To be critically acclaimed
And they'll warm their frost-bitten hands
Whenever you go up in flames
And 2 months from now, 2 months from now,
They'll all forget your name
When the spotlight hurts your eyes
And you don't have to fake cry
Look at the mess you've made
And think, "Was it a fair trade
For 15 minutes of fame?"
To any and all forms of fiction
Trying to escape reality
Is your worst disposition
So you're an actress and
You do your own worst depiction
A walking contradiction, then again,
What's life without a little friction?
*When life gives you lemons,
You just blame it on the limelight
If it's on TV, it's not reality
You got your citrus lips all puckered up
And you're looking to be freshly squeezed
You just can't see you're based on a true story*
v2. The media people are always talking
'Bout who or what's to blame
But 2 months ago, you were begging
To be critically acclaimed
And they'll warm their frost-bitten hands
Whenever you go up in flames
And 2 months from now, 2 months from now,
They'll all forget your name
When the spotlight hurts your eyes
And you don't have to fake cry
Look at the mess you've made
And think, "Was it a fair trade
For 15 minutes of fame?"
