CHILD OF PRIVILEGE
(To the tune of "Child of Innocence," from the Kansas album Masque)
 
 
Sweet child of privilege, living out upon the edge
Tabloid fame will take its toll; wrack your body and steal your soul
What became of all your fears?  Weren't you drowning in your tears?
Who will catch you when you fall?  Who will care if you should call?
 
We will ignore you; slap your hand and once we're through,
We will show you to the door
 
Who do you think you are?  Don't pretend you're gonna be a TV star
We want to hear no more, 'specially not how you'll support Al Gore
Though your life is on parade, and you think you've got it made,
Soon the limelight will grow cold, long before you're grey and old
 
We will ignore you; slap your hand and once we're through,
We will shove you through the door
 
In the image of those who've been used before by Bill
You were cast in the web of a shameful spell
You're holding on to lies, but things aren't as they seem
No, you're not like Princess Di; go live within your dream but let us wake!
Oh, just let us wake!
 
Judge not by MTV; more than you can count are tired of thee
Give up your foolish pride; all who've praised your book have lied!
What became of all your fears?  Weren't you drowning in your tears?
Who will catch you when you fall?  Who will care if you should call?
 
We will ignore you; slap your hand and once we're through,
We will kick you out the door
We will ignore you; slap your hand and once we're through,
We will kick you out the door
