Ballyhoo! Selling Out Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I played my first rock show when I was 15
But now it don't look like it did in my dream
The radio want no kids from Aberdeen
All the late shows don't care and we lost MTV

[Pre-Chorus]
Now all our friends are getting married
Bands are breaking up
But I'll keep playing my guitar
Cause I don't give a f*ck if I am-

[Chorus]
-Running out of time
My 15 minutes of fame will arrive
Manifestation
Getting paid, getting laid
It's great to be alive

[Verse 2]
Fast forward, 2000s were setting the tone
With record executives calling my phone
But we were too upbeat for the status quo
Cause they don't like reggae or route 40 ho's [Pre-Chorus]
Now all our friends are getting married
Bands are breaking up
But I'll keep playing my guitar
Cause I don't give a f*ck if I am-
[Chorus]
-Running out of time
My 15 minutes of fame will arrive
Manifestation
Getting paid, getting laid
It's great to be alive

[Bridge]
(Here we go!)

[Pre-Chorus]
Now all our friends are getting married
Bands are breaking up
But I'll keep playing my guitar
Cause I don't give a f*ck if I am-

[Chorus]
-Running out of time
My 15 minutes of fame will arrive
Manifestation
Getting paid, getting laid
It's great to be alive
