Allday - Nearly Famous

Let's go
Find me in the motherfucking bathroom
Yacking in the bowl
She's rubbing my back watching
The tragedy unfold
Like, "Better out than in
Now let's get you home"
I'm the one her parents hate
Still the best she's ever known
And there's vomit on my shirt
That's how I deal with everything
I'm saying something slurred, "Yada yada
Fuck my enemies" i think I lost my phone
Who the fuck is texting me?
It's only my poor mother
She just wonders where the hell I be
While my best friend's calling
Her like, "Lucy, chill
I know it's 4: 00am
I swear we're at the movies still"
Because we grew up quickly
Watching all these stupid films
Now I'm living life just trying
To make the movies real, like

Thinking I'm the man 'cause they say it
But dude
You haven't made it 'til you make it
And this is not a Tumblr, I'm just wasted
Hanging at the party, feeling
Like I'm nearly famous, whoa oh
And this is what it's like
To be nearly famous
And this is what it's like
To be nearly famous
And this is what it's like
To be nearly famous
Yeah, this is what it's like
To be nearly famous

Find me on the motherfucking floor
With my eyes rolling back
My girl has given up
She couldn't deal with all the crap
I do it 'cause it's fun and
I do it 'cause I can
But I'm older than I used to be
And now it's sort of sad
'Cause people that I grew up
With are buying bungalows
But people that I grew up
With are mostly dummies though
That is not for me
I had to leave my mum at home
Now I've got these people smiling at
Me I don't fucking know
But love to my old friends
Love to my new ones
Bye to the fake ones, stand by the true ones
My nana says, "Tom
You were a boy I thought I knew once"
But so much has changed in
The last few months, like

Thinking I'm the man 'cause they say it
But dude
You haven't made it 'til you make it
And this is not a Tumblr, I'm just wasted
Hanging at the party, feeling
Like I'm nearly famous, whoa oh
Yeah, this is what it's like
To be nearly famous
And this is what it's like
To be nearly famous
And this is what it's like
To be nearly famous
Yeah, this is what it's like
To be nearly famous

She says that I'll end up in a casket
In a suit and tie i tell my girl, "Chill
You know I'm too cute to die"
My dad's saying, "Damn it
Don't be a silly fool"
I say, "Only the good die young" Billy Joel
My youth is nearly gone
Forgot where I was from
Making my way to the top
But you know the ride is long
'Cause I believed the hype when they
Told me I was on but I'm just nearly famous
This is not the life I want
I'm ordering these shots like I
Haven't had enough yet
Telling all my secrets to these
People that I just met
My girl is always crying, I tell her
"Don't be upset"
This what I'll do trying to
Get a little success, like

Thinking I'm the man 'cause they say it
But dude
You haven't made it 'til you make it
And this is not a Tumblr, I'm just wasted
Hanging at the party, feeling
Like I'm nearly famous, whoa oh
And this is what it's like
To be nearly famous
Uh, this is what it's like
To be nearly famous
And this is what it's like
To be nearly famous
I'm trying hard to be really famous
