Fame

Fame - Vanilla Ice

Now everybody wants to have fame

But you'll pay the price

If you're not plain' it by the game

Cuz this game is made up

Of a bunch of crazy rules

And fools get took if they're

Not plaing by the rules

Now the Ice is kickin' it

Kickin' it kickin' it like a champ

But don't try to play me like

Some wet food stamp

They say that it was a fluke

Cuz I used a fat loop

But here's the sccop troop

The Ice is back to make it hoop

An' since it's 94 and now

I'm back on the scene

Escapin from the hell of

Takin' it to the extreme

It's kind of strange

Cuz people say you've changed

But I never changed

Even though I got Fame

Yo I'm still the same

Fame I'm still the same person

I never ever switch an' even if I'm rich

But now it's like an itch

Cuz I love the music

They say I do it for the money

And it's funny clockin' all the honeys;

The ones that used to dis

Now they wanna kiss

Lookin' at what my troops got

Now they're getting their boots knocked

Damn it's a shame do I love 'em

No I don't "G"

A couple of yeas ago

They didn't want me

Now I got these so called friends

It's down with the Ice

Cuz they know I'm makin' ends

But my real friends have

Been friends through the fame

An' since I have fame ain't a

Damn thing changed

Yo I'm still the same

And let me tell you about

The pros and the cons

Fame only lasts if you keep

Droppin' them bombs

Now in the public eye

You know I'm havin' to admit it

You become a target for

A whole lot of critics

Reporters stickin' to ya like white on rice

Now everywhere

I go they wanna interview the Ice

Before every show it's like

I'm steadily surrounded

By all of my fans and the media's houndin'

This is not a dis cuz I love all my fans

But the media doesn't really understand

They take what ya say

Twist it around into lies

And the next thing ya know

A bunch of rumors start to fly

Then they try to make you

Out to be a straight liar

And next you'll be the front

Page of hte National Enquirer

Oh what a price to pay

To play this crazy game

You betta' be prepared

If you ever reach fame

Yo I'm still the same
