Lady Gaga - Applause

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 in I.V.
Baby could I bear
Being away from you
I found the vein put it in here

I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause
Live for the applause-plause
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause
Applause
Applause

Give me that thing that I love
(I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up make 'em touch, touch
(Make it real loud!)
Give me that thing that I love
(I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up make 'em touch, touch
(Make it real loud!)
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Make it real loud!
Put your hands up make 'em touch, touch
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Make it real loud!
Put your hands up make 'em touch, touch

I overheard your theory
'Nostalgia's for geeks!'
I guess Sir, if you say so
Some of us just like to read

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

I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause
Live for the applause-plause
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause
Applause
Applause

Give me that thing that I love
(I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up make 'em touch, touch
(Make it real loud!)
Give me that thing that I love
(I'll turn the lights out!)
Put your hands up make 'em touch, touch
(Make it real loud!)
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Make it real loud!
Put your hands up make 'em touch, touch
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Make it real loud!
Put your hands up make 'em touch, touch

Touch, touch...
Touch, touch now...

I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause
Live for the applause-plause
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause
