I'm gonna make it, I'm gonna make it fast Forget the people who are in my past Unless they can introduce me to Some Hollywood producer who Can help me skip some steps along the way And make a name for myself here in LA Then laugh at the people who can barely pay Their car, their gas, their acting class Their rent, their bills, their weight-loss pills Their gym membership, their pecs, their tits Their $70 parking tickets Fuck everybody it's easy to see That no one else is as deserving as me I've put in my time now it's time for my time But Why isn't anyyone waiting in line to see me? What about me? I'm working 60 hour weeks Driving back and forth between the Hollywood peaks At night I start my moonlighting Taking names and networking If I'm lucky I get a couple hours of sleep I count calories and carbs every time I eat But that's the price you pay to stay skinny and sheik Just ten more years of trying my best Until I'm an overnight success Think I'm going insane but you'd never guess Because I suppress all my fear and stress I'm trading my life for the life I adore Completely forgetting who I was before I can't wait til I'm famous and finally there I'll have everything and nobody to share it with It's gonna be awesome I'm stuck in traffic but that's ok This isn't my car but it will be one day This is my apartment I only pay twelve hundred dollars a month It's been 10 years and I'm still here Any second now I'm gonna get that phone call He's gonna say, "Hi I'm a top notch guy Are you ready to be paid way too much money?" And I'm gonna say "I been waitin this day For 9 odd jobs and too many birthdays" But that hasn't happened yet an I'm 38 And I've started doing drugs to pretend life's ok It's gonna happen soon, any second now I'm gonna be alright don't you worry bout me Cause soon you will see This was all worthy Of all my money And identity And friends and family And getting married And having babies And being happy And eating weekly Selling my body When everyone sees That I'm more important than them I just want to be loved by everyone I just want to be loved by anyone
