F#m A B
But they're out there beggin' for some more

Take a break and find a place you can hide
'Cause tonight you're got to be a star personified
You're rushin' round to get your plane
Then it's back in the bubble again

Critics comin' 'cause you're Number One (Number One)

Play your hits and all the girls will come
