See you've got the new biography
Where did they get the info from
Same as before some, so called friends

Who claim to have, known me then
How come they've got such good memories
And I can't even remember last week

Got to queston where they're coming from
What knowledge of me is it that they speak


So far away, way back when
The people that claim, to have known me then
Not on my wavelength and it's such a shame

That they have to play the name game
The fame game, oh the name game,
Lord it's a cryin' shame

Lord tell me what's to blame

Reinvented all the stories they know

Give them all a different slant
What is it that they're really looking for
Just a hobby on the internet


So far away, way back when
The people that claim, to have known me then

Not on my wavelength and it's such a shame
That they have to play the name game
The fame game, the name game,

Oh it's such a cryin' shame, tell me who's to blame

If they didn't really know me way back

How can they know me now, in any respect
It's a pity they don't feel the pain
That they should pay the price to play, to play

The fame game, the name game
It's such a cryin' shame, please tell me who's to blame


Not on my wavelength and it's such a shame
That they have to play, have to play the fame game
Oh the name game, it's a cryin' shame

Please tell me who's to blame
They keep on playin'
The fame game, oh the name game

It's such a cryin' shame, please tell me who's to blame
Keep on playin' the fame game
Lord, the name game, its such a cryin' shame

Please tell me who's to blame
They just keep on playin' the fame game
Oh the name game, its such a cryin' shame

Please tell me who's to blame
Keep on, keep on playin'..
