I stand here waiting for
you to bang the gong
To crash the critic saying
Is it right or is it wrong
If onIy 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 on
Put your hands up
Make 'em touch touch
Give me that thing that I love
I'll turn the lights on
Put your hands up
Make 'em touch touch
Make it real loud
Put your hands up
Make 'em touch touch
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 Kunst then
suddenly the Kunst is me
Pop culture was an 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 on
Put your hands up
Make 'em touch touch
Give me that thing that I love
I'll turn the lights on
Put your hands up
Make 'em touch touch
Make it real loud
Put your hands up
Make 'em touch touch
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
applause applause
Give me that thing that I love
I'll turn the lights on
Put your hands up
Make 'em touch touch
Give me that thing that I love
I'll turn the lights on
Put your hands up
Make 'em touch touch
Make it real loud
Put your hands up
Make 'em touch touch
Make it real loud
Put your hands up
Make 'em touch touch
