[Verse 1]
Oh yeah
Have got no hope, got no idea
What to do or why I am here
I want to get my face on your T.V
I want to be heard
I want to be seen

[Pre-Chorus]
I have got nothing, no, nothing
Nothing to show
(Make me a celebrity!)

[Chorus]
I want to be
A face on T.V
(I want to be on your screen)
Then you can see
I am a C-lebrity

[Verse 2]
I want to get my features in magazines
See this creature on every street on every screen
Write my life story before I'm twenty-one
I have got to tell the world
They may say I am dumb - but er

[Pre-Chorus]
Have got nothing, no nothing
Nothing to show
(Make me a celebrity!)

[Chorus]
I want to be
A face on T.V
(I want to be on your screen)
Then you can see
I am a C-lebrity
(Yeah!)

[Verse 3]
I want to be a star in a Broadway musical
They are going to love me, I cannot sing or dance at all
Some may say I am lackadaisical and if I was real good
I would stand no chance at all - but I
I want to be
A face on T.V
(yeah, I want to be on your screen)
Then you can see
I am a C-lebrity
(Then you can say)
Then you can say
You knew me one day
(And then you will see)
Then you will see
I am a C-lebrity
(Oh oh oh)

[Outro]
C, c-lebrity
Want to be a c-c-c-lebrity
(Make my dream come true)
C, c-lebrity
Want to be a c-c-c-c-lebrity
I want to be heard
I want to be seen on every T.V. screen

Formed in 1970, Queen was a British rock band whose classic line-up consisted of Freddie Mercury on lead vocals and piano, Brian May on lead guitar, Roger Taylor on drums, and John Deacon on bass. Although Mercury and May wrote the bulk of the band’s material, all four contributed to the songwriting, churning out huge hits. Initially a progressive rock band with strong metal influences, their sound evolved dramatically over time. The band went on to refine, if not define “stadium rock,” as they grew to become one of the most beloved rock bands of all time.

Their early progressive phase spawned epic tracks like “March of the Black Queen” and one international hit “Killer Queen.” But it was their 1975 track “Bohemian Rhapsody” which catapulted the group to super-stardom. The song reigned at #1 on the UK charts for nine weeks and has since been praised as one of the greatest songs of all time

Moving away from their album-orientated sound, the band only grew in popularity with such songs as November 1976’s “Somebody to Love,” October 1977’s “We Are the Champions,” January 1979’s “Don’t Stop Me Now,” June 1980’s “Another One Bites the Dust,” January 1984’s “Radio Ga Ga,” and many more. These songs are so beloved that a musical based on the band’s discography, titled We Will Rock You, became one of West-End’s longest-running shows with a 12-year run through May 2014—and more events being featured internationally, as well.
