See you've got the new bi-ography,

Who claim to have known me then.
Verse 2:
C Am
How come they've got such good memories,

When I can't even re-member last week?

Got to question where they're coming from,

What knowledge of me is it that they speak?

The people that claim to have known me then.

They're not on my wavelength,

The fame game, oh the name game.

Oh the name game,
F
Lord it's a cryin' shame,
G
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.

If they didn't really know me way back,

To play, to play...
