I BET YOU'RE A LEGEND NOW

WHAT'S A HEADLINE TO A JUNKIE?
WHO'S AN ARTIST TO HIS FANS?
MAYBE YOU HIT THE WALL AND FELL INTO YOUR COMFORT MAN
BOTTOM LINE BOYS PAY HIM WELL

AND I BET YOU'RE A LEGEND NOW
HAD TO GO OUT SOMEHOW
GET YOU IDOL ON A T-SHIRT WHILE YOU CAN
THE WIFE IS GETTING OVERBOTHERED
YOU GOT RAPED AND YOU GOT SLAUGHTERED
AND I BET YOU'LL BE A LEGEND NOW

WHO AM I TO CHRONICLE?
WHO AM I TO REAP THESE WORDS?
IN SOMEWAY YOU GAVE THEM
WHAT THEY WANTED FROM YOU ALL ALONG
NOW THE MERCHANDISE IS MOVING QUICK

AND I BET YOU'RE A LEGEND NOW
HAD TO GO OUT SOMEHOW
GET YOU IDOL ADDED TO SOME STUPID LIST
WE'RE ALL GETTING SENTIMENTAL
RELIEF IS SO EXPERIMENTAL
AND I BET YOU'LL BE A LEGEND NOW

FULL SCALE MARRIAGE DEATH AND MUSIC
2ND COUSINS DRUGS AND FAME
TURNING BLUE FROM VAST CONFUSION
NOW EVERYBODY LOVES YOUR NAME
I HOPE YOU GOT WHAT YOU WANTED
CAUSE NOW IT'S IT'S OUT OF YOUR HANDS
