Saw Your Name in the Paper

Lyrics

I saw your name in the paper
 There was quiet a blow
 Your mother must be happy
 They said you stole the show
 You always did have talent
 You always did work hard
 Now is new you'd prefer
 A place on the front yard
 Maybe you'll get famous
 Maybe you'll get rich
 That's alright, don't be afraid
 Lots of us got that each
 Lots of us really need it
 Yeah, we really need it bad
 Lots of us are desperate
 And lots of us are sad
 ♪
 Take the money, take the love
 Take all the people give
 The people all are dying
 But somehow you help them lived
 The people will destroy you
 That love will turn to hate
 But right now you must scratch it
 Your rich that's grown so great
 Make yourself a hero
 It's heroes people crave
 Make yourself a master
 But know you are a slave
 ♪
 I saw your name in the paper
 I saw your name in the paper
 I saw your name in the paper
 ♪
 I saw your name in the paper
 I saw your name in the paper
 I saw your name in the paper
 Ahh
