Hittin' It Big
Chasing Stardom: A Fool's Journey to Fame
Lyrics
I'd be lying if I said I didn't wanna be famous
I express a desire for fame, though acknowledging the potential for deception in this statement.
And I've been trying just a little bit, a little to make it
I have been making some effort, albeit modest, to achieve success.
I've been dreaming of playing lots of shows in front of millions of faces
I dream of performing in front of large audiences, envisioning success in the music industry.
And I'm gonna do it on my own and I don't wanna fake it
I intend to achieve my goals independently, without pretending or being insincere.
We're gonna sell out when we hit it big
We anticipate widespread success and recognition in our musical career.
We're gonna have fake friends at our gigs
Expectation of insincere or opportunistic friendships during our successful moments.
Asking for free tickets to our shows
Anticipating requests for complimentary tickets from people attending our shows.
Because that's the way it goes now don't you know
Commenting on the current reality of the music industry.
I don't wanna be another nothing, with nothing to lose
I want to avoid being a nobody with nothing significant to risk or gain.
I always wanted to be something, at least something to you
Expressing a lifelong desire to be meaningful or important to someone.
I don't wanna be remembered for playing the blues
Rejecting the idea of being remembered for playing sad or melancholic music.
I just wanna be remembered for being a fool
Expressing a preference to be remembered for embracing foolishness or spontaneity.
We're gonna sell out when we hit it big
Reiteration of the expectation of widespread success and popularity.
We're gonna have fake friends at our gigs
Reiteration of expecting insincere friendships during successful moments.
Asking for free tickets to our show
Anticipating requests for free tickets to our performances.
Because that's the way it goes now don't you know
Highlighting the prevailing norms and expectations in the music industry.
We're gonna sell out when we hit it big
Reiteration of the anticipation of widespread success and recognition.
We're gonna have fake friends at our gigs
Reiteration of expecting insincere friendships during successful moments.
Asking for free tickets to our show
Anticipating requests for free tickets to our performances.
Because that's the way it goes now don't you know
Highlighting the prevailing norms and expectations in the music industry.
We're gonna sell out when we hit it big
Reiteration of the anticipation of widespread success and recognition.
The whole damn crowd knowing our lyrics
Envisioning a future where the audience is familiar with and sings along to our lyrics.
Wearing our T-shirts at our shows
Expectation of fans proudly wearing merchandise at our performances.
Because that's the way it goes now don't you know
Emphasizing the acceptance of the industry's norms and expectations.
We're gonna sell out when we hit it big
Reiteration of the anticipation of widespread success and recognition.
We're gonna sell out when we hit it big
Repetition emphasizing confidence in achieving commercial success.
We're gonna sell out when we hit it big
-We're gonna sell out when we hit it big
