John Hancock/Famine

I’ve done my time in Hollywood
I’ve done all that I could
And I’ve done everything that I should
When these didn’t work I wondered what would

Out to put my name on the world

Trying to achieve this thing called fame
I proceed ahead without shame
Never get tired of playing this game
Before it leaves as fast as it came

Traveled across the country just to be a star
But it could not be so I just watch from afar
Choosing to leave my family behind
In pursuit of a dream the I will never find

Out to put my name on the world

Trying to achieve this thing called fame
I proceed ahead without shame
Never get tired of playing this game
Before it leaves as fast as it came

It seemed I always knew I’d make it
Until I figured out my eyes were jaded
Endless city streets that I seem to roam
Endless path of depression leaves me without a home

Out to put my name on the world

Trying to achieve this thing called fame
I proceed ahead without shame
Never get tired of playing this game
Before it leaves as fast as it came

(Famine)

Little boy born today
Born just to waste away
Baby carrage and wet nurse
Undertaker and his hearse

Little boy knows no fear
Never was taught to revere
Little boy knows no respect
Needs more lies to protect

Hungry for attention
Starving for someone to be
Can't afford any love
Even though it's free

Little boy is now a man
Still he doesn't understand
Why he was left to drown
Why his family's not around

Hungry for attention
Starving for someone to be
Can't afford any love
Even though it's free

Little boy lies on deathbed
Knows he will soon be dead
Smiles a smile for all to see
Soon he joins his family

Hungry for attention
Starving for somewhere to be
Can't buy any love
Even though it's free
