Verse 1
Living your life in the public eye
Is like having a permanent spy...
Follow you around
And then in the papers is where it's found
Chorus
When you're seen through the lens
It's best to know you can trust your friends
Being a celebrity isn't easy
All the pressure can make you wheezy.
That's my life...
Through the lens.
Verse 2
Being famous can be funny
Especially when you're makin' so much money.
Yes, money can buy you a Mercedes Benz
But can it buy you close friends?
Can it make you free as a dove?
Or give you a fan base you really love.
Chorus
When you're seen through the lens
It's best to know you can trust your friends
Being a celebrity isn't easy
All the pressure can make you wheezy.
That's my life...
Through the lens.
Verse 3
Being in the business can give you an attitude
That is really rude.
But hands down! I admit!
That is a description in which I fit.
Chorus
When you're seen through the lens
It's best to know you can trust your friends
Being a celebrity isn't easy
All the pressure can make you wheezy.
That's my life...
Through the lens.
