Superstar (Remember How You Got Where You Are) Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
If you want the blues, let me hear me, [?] sing
I feel good, I just wanna talk to you, I wanna express something near and dear
I know you can understand it, 'cause I know I’ve heard it, say, listen

[Verse 1]
Don't change your style now that you've reached the top
Don’t choose your friends by what they've got
Remember, beneath the glitter and gleam
Like everyday people, you're just a human being

[Bridge]
Superstar, yeah
Enjoy the champagne and caviar
And your chauffeur driven fancy car
But remember how you got where you are
Ooh ooh, 'cause the same folks that made you
Better believe they can break you, oh

[Verse 2]
No, you didn't make it all by yourself
You had help from somebody else
The truth is the light, no, no, don't let it depress you
Just be thankful that the good Lord made you

[Chorus]
Superstar, yeah, do you know, you know who your real friends are?
I'm talkin' to you
Superstar, superstar, remember how you got where you are
Don’t stop, don’t stop

[Bridge]
Come on, come on
Keep it going
Horn, start blowin' (Horn, start blowin’)
Come on
Right on time (Yeah), blow my mind (Yeah)
Higher (Higher), higher (Higher)

[Verse 3]
It's easy for you to look down, yeah
Turn up your nose and frown
Now that you're on top (Top)
Bright lights (Bright lights)
Oh, no, don't let the bright lights blind you
(Bridges) Bridges, told me
Don’t ever burn 'em behind you

[Chorus]
Superstar, yeah, do you know, do you know who your real friends are?
I'm talkin' to you
Superstar, yeah, remember how you got where you are
'Cause the same folks that made you
Well, you better believe they can break you

Superstar, yeah, do you know, do you know who your real friends are?
I'm talkin' to you
Superstar, yeah, remember how you got where you are

[Outro]
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen
Lay on the bass
Let me groove, baby, baby
Just a bit of music
Come on, keep going
