lyrics

Hey Celebrity

I took some pretty pictures to my dying friend
To temporarily trick her so she might forget
Distract her with the sparkles dripping down each hem
Far from her own carpet running blood cell red

Hey Celebrity
You exist for me
Take away the pain
From tumors breaking down her brain

It's easier to watch them playing on the beach
In countries so exotic we could never reach
Than sit still on a table, shooting up each arm
The chemicals they make a suit to be safe from

Hey Celebrity
You exist for me
Take away the pain
From tumors breaking down her brain

When she was just a little girl
She wanted nothing in the world
But to be a movie star
Please let her wake up where you are

There isn't any magazine
That can make her body clean
But those supermodel smiles
Take it away just for awhile

Hey Celebrity
You exist for me
Take away the pain
From tumors breaking down her brain
