Freshmint! Lyrics
we're on the way up
i don't want to stop
we're goin' to the top
there's nothing stopping us now
we're not going to lose
and yeah we've got all the moves
just keep the shine in our shoes
we'll never let you down
no pain no gain
light up the sky like a flame
and bum a whole in your brain
no more decisions are ours
and when you're where it's at
you can't do better than that
how could it be such pap?
one thing i never knew
and every time i go to bed
these things keep running through my head
there's nothing going on out there...
nothing going on out there...
b b b baby i could be your superstar
and take too many drugs in a celebrity bar
k k k keep my skin soft and shining from afar
for my high speed death in the back of a car
we're on the way down
and when you hit the ground
you know you make no sound
and no-one sweeps you away
it's tough at the top
you never know when you'll pop
but when you've got what you've got
you never think twice
you don't remember my name
you don't remember my face
thought it was burnt on your brain
was it so long ago?
and now i'm losing my hair
you know that just can't be fair
and next to nobody cares when it's over
and every time i go to bed
these things keep running through my head
there's nothing going on out there...
nothing going on out there...
b b b baby i could be your superstar
and take too many drugs in a celebrity bar
k k k keep my skin soft and shining from afar
for my high speed death in the back of a car
b b b baby i could be your superstar
and we could boot champagne and snort caviar
s s s stick with me honey and you'll go far
as we watch the world burning from a heated spa
burn baby burn (x4)
b b b baby i could be your superstar
and take too many drugs in a celebrity bar
k k k keep my skin soft and shining from afar
for my high speed death in the back of a car
b b b baby i could be your superstar
and we could boot champagne and snort caviar
s s s stick with me honey and you'll go far
as we watch the world burning from a heated spa

Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
I love this song. Great criticism of the flashy, false life of superstars. And how quickly fads come and go.
I agree in a way. This is my favourite gurge song!
Just so fun to listen to. I think it has the deepest meaning, because we all know, their songs have no hidden meaning.
I think is lyrical jab at the excesses of certain wealthy lifestyles, as well as the rise and fall in fame in celebrity life.
Also, I feel that this part ("and every time i go to bed these things keep running through my head there's nothing going on out there...) seems to suggest a sense of denial/suppression of what is really going on in the world .
Rather than try to deal with the real world, or be constructive, they remain ignorant to the problems of the world, preferring to live hedonistically and beyond their means, consuming champagne and caviar and watching the world burn from a heated spa
