Like a Soap Opera
Ben Fitzgerald

I have a question to ask the world

Why the hell does everybody read those stupid magazines
What the hell is with these stupid sex tips and celebrities
Why do people give a damn about celebrities' love lives
Brad and Jen, Ben and Jen, Vince and Jen
Tom and Katie and Angelina Jolie

When will people realize
That celebrities are just like us
They laugh, they bleed, they die, they revenge
They're not better, they're just richer
And that the red carpet
Doesn't make them a better person
They laugh, they bleed, they die, they revenge
They're just like us, they're just famous

Why the hell do girls all want to look like Jessica Simpson
Why the hell do girls care so much about being beautiful
Jesus, when will girls realize that true beauty doesn't lie
In their face, in their breast, in their thighs
But in their hearts and in their minds

Why the hell do guys all want to look and dress just like Usher
Why the hell do guys have to act a certain way to be cool
God, when will guys realize that their best qualities do not lie
In their face, in their abs, in their balls
But in their hearts and in their minds

When will people realize
That celebrities are just like us
They laugh, they bleed, they die, they revenge
They're not better, they're just richer
And that the red carpet
Doesn't make them a better person
They laugh, they bleed, they die, they revenge
They're just like us, they're just famous

People need to stop idolizing them
We all make mistakes, they're no different
Even Lennon beat his wife
Fairytale weddings are a fairytale
Starving yourself to be thin is not good
And no, blondes don't have more fun

Do you really think that they enjoy their lack of privacy
Everywhere they go they're haunted by a damn Paparazzi
It doesn't matter what they do, they can't get a moments peace
Here's a message for everybody
Their lives are not a soap opera

When will people realize
That celebrities are just like us
They laugh, they bleed, they die, they revenge
They're not better, they're just richer
And that the red carpet
Doesn't make them a better person
They laugh, they bleed, they die, they revenge
They're just like us, they're just famous
