He showed you no interest, he gave you no love
   From time to time he was funny
   He loved only two things, but one was enough for him
   Was it the fame or the money?
  
   Was it fame or money?
   Lethal vice, cold as ice.
   Was it fame or money?
   Holding tight, 'til everything is all right
   Everything is all right
  
   Up to his eyeballs, always in debt
   He's suddenly off and running
   So what motivation lay at the heart of it?
   Was it the fame or the money?
  
   Was it fame or money?
   Lethal vice, cold as ice.
   Was it fame or money?
   Holding tight, 'til everything is all right
   Everything is all right
   Everything is all right
  
   We're all in the running
   With all of the money
   Take all over and over again
  
   Back in his schooldays, four-eyed and zits
   No good at games, and skinny
   Locked in the boys' room left him no choice at all
   Had to be fame and money
  
   So it's fame and money
   Lethal vice, cold as ice
   So it's fame and money
   Holding tight, 'til everything is all right
   Fame and money
   Lethal vice, cold as ice
   So it's fame and money
   Holding tight, 'til everything is all right
   Everything is all right
   Everything is all right
