Lady Gaga - Applause

I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong
To crash the critic saying, 'is it right, or is it wrong'
If only fame had an IV, baby, could I bear
Being away from you, I found the vein, put in it 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, turn the lights on
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, make it real loud
Give me that thing that I love, turn the lights on
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, make it real loud
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 Koons, then suddenly the Koons 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, turn the lights on
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, make it real loud
Give me that thing that I love, turn the lights on
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, make it real loud
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, turn the lights on
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, make it real loud
Give me that thing that I love, turn the lights on
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, make it real loud
Make it real loud, put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch
Make it real loud, put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch
