Common Superstar System
music & lyrics by E. Tiberi

They have built a theatre and we are the bricks
I know they did but I dunno when
They’ve sold us tickets
And we are the money
I see the show but I dunno when
They’ve had us clap
And we are the sound of silence
They're writing on our skin the smiles and lies
They have given us a script
And told us it was a libretto
They have decided our loudness
The words and gestures
They have made our life a show business
They made us stars
They made us stars
They have made our life a show business
I am a star! I am a star!
They have given us a script
And told us it was a librettoContaining in the inside the smiles and lies
We never had a second
To spend on knowing The director
We never had a second to just have a rest
And throw away the mask
We never had a second
To spend on knowing The director
We never had a second to ask for a day off
And throw away the mask
