My mother hangs the washing and my father has jobs to ignore
The weekend that has come is the same as the weekend before
And if I bust out and the highway is really the key
Everyone can follow, everyone can overtake me

I don't need no fame

Well I'm going to write a novel that is set a hundred years ago
The custom and the carriage or the people well I don't know
It doesn't really matter if you can't exactly recall
Some people rise while others are happy to fall

I don't need no fame

I know I'm going to make it, going to do it all on my own
I can't talk now gotta get off the phone
And if I bust out and the highway is really the key
Everyone can follow, everyone can overtake me

I don't need no fame
