I stand here waiting for
You to bang the gong
To crash the critic saying
Is it right or is it wrong?
If only fame had an I. V
Baby, could I bear
Being away from you, I
Found the vein, put it in here
I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause
Live for the applause-plause
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause
Give me that thing that I love
(I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch
(Make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love
(I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch
(Make it real loud)
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
(Make it real loud)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
(Make it real loud)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch
