Applause Lyrics

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 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)

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’ve 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 Fan, 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)

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

Woo, Touch, Touch
Woo, Touch, Touch Now
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh

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)

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
