Call Me When You’re Famous lyrics

You said you’d be on every poster

Before the summer turned to fall

Now you’re playing empty Tuesdays

Like you never left at all

You wanted space to chase your name

So I gave you outer space

Call me when you’re famous

When everybody knows

Call me from the penthouse

Or your mother’s old flip phone

You said I’d only slow you down

So go and prove me wrong

Call me when you’re famous

I won’t answer, but call

I saw your single got eleven

Little hearts beneath the post

Guess the world is taking longer

To discover what I lost

You wanted space to chase your name

Now nobody knows your face

Call me when you’re famous

When everybody knows

Call me from the penthouse

Or your mother’s old flip phone

You said I’d only slow you down

So go and prove me wrong

Call me when you’re famous

I won’t answer, but call

Maybe pride makes pretty songs

Too bad yours are eight minutes long

Call me when you’re famous

Or call me when you’re not

Tell me all about the dream

And everything it cost

You said I’d only slow you down

Now look how far I’ve gone

Call me when you’re famous

I still won’t pick up
