I Was A Famous Singer in Milow

Let me tell you a little more about who I used to be
I was a famous singer I was big in Germany
The more that I performed the louder people screamed my name
Ohrwurm after ohrwurm I quickly rose to fame

I used to be I used to be I used to be so cool
I was a famous singer I was making up the rules

Let me tell you a little more about all the things I tried
Being a famous singer was much more fun when I was high
I made more money than I thought that I could ever spend
Kept buying cars and houses and then Tommy joined my band

I used to be I used to be I used to be so cool
I was a famous singer I had my own swimming pool

Let me tell you a little more about where it all went wrong
He was a famous singer but not for very long
He thought nothing could go wrong so he started drinking in the afternoon
Until he lost the skills to write an honest and catchy tune

You used to be you used to be you used to be so cool
He was a famous singer now he’s just a singing fool

Let me tell you a little more about who I used to be
I was a famous singer until my fans gave up on me
I need sleeping pills to sleep and to wake up bigger bells
My guitars keep getting smaller just like the rooms in my hotels

I used to be I used to be I used to be so cool
We used to be we used to be we used to be so cool

I was a famous singer now I regret dropping out of school
