[SAM]
I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong
To crash the critic saying: "Is it right or is it wrong?"
If only fame had an IV, baby, could I bear?
Being away from you, I've found the vein, put it in here

[BLAINE]
I live for the applause, applause, applause

[ARTIE]
I live for the applause-plause
Live for the applause-plause

[RYDER]
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause

Give me that thing that I love

I've overheard your theory: "Nostalgia’s for geeks!"

[RYDER]
I guess sir, if you say so, some of us just like to read

[ARTIE]
One second I’m a Koons, then suddenly the Koons is me
Pop culture was in art, now art’s in pop culture, in me
