I Was a Famous Singer (Live)

[Verse 1: Milow]
Let me tell you a little more
About who I used to be
I was a famous singer
I was big in Germany

The more that I performed
The louder people screamed my name
Ohrwurm after ohrwurm
I quickly rose to fame

[Chorus 1: Milow]
I used to be, I used to be
I used to be so cool
I was a famous singer
I was making up the rules

[Verse 2: Milow]
Let me tell you a little more
About all the things I tried
Being a famous singer
Was much more fun when I was high

I made more money than I thought
That I could ever spend
Kept buying cars and houses
And then Tommy joined my band

[Chorus 2: Milow]
I used to be, I used to be
I used to be so cool
I was a famous singer
I had my own swimming pool

[Verse 3: Tom Vanstiphout]
Let me tell you a little more
About where it all went wrong
He was a famous singer
But not for very long

He thought nothing could go wrong
So he started drinking in the afternoon
Until he lost the skills to write
An honest and catchy tune

[Chorus 3: Tom Vanstiphout]
You used to be, you used to be
You used to be so cool
He was a famous singer
Now he's just a singing fool

[Verse 4: Milow]
Let me tell you a little more
About who I used to be
I was a famous singer
Until my fans gave up on me

I need sleeping pills to sleep
And to wake up bigger bells
My guitars keep getting smaller
Just like the rooms in my hotels

[Chorus 4: Milow]
I used to be, I used to be
I used to be so cool
We used to be, we used to be
We used to be so cool
I was a famous singer
Now I regret dropping out of school
