Lyrics
Pick me up, give me more pain
Sky is dark, god no more rain
Life is long, I got so old
Sidewalk's wet, sleep in the cold
Walk of Fame, Walk of Fame
Walk of Fame, such a shame
Walk of Fame, Walk of Fame
Walk of Fame
Take a step, walk on a star
They're all dead, you're not that far
It's a lie, life is complete
Touch a name, with tired feet
Walk of Fame, Walk of Fame
Walk of Fame, god's to blame
Walk of Fame, Walk of Fame
Walk of Fame
Dog is cute, I was once, too
Give him some, he'll give to you
I look fine, to untrained eyes
All the hope, that money buys
Walk of Fame, Walk of Fame
Walk of Fame, no one came
Walk of Fame, Walk of Fame
Walk of Fame
Don't be sad, it's not the end
Though I break, I also bend
Concrete smell, adds to my tears
I'll be there, many more years
Walk of Fame, Walk of Fame
Walk of Fame, what's my name
Walk of Fame, Walk of Fame
Walk of Fame, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
