Story Behind The Song

Early on in the show we meet the wannabee contestants in this corrupt TV talent competition called "Fame game."

Song Description

In "Fame Game", which is an "X Factor" spoof, the (dreadful) wannabees sing of their deep desire to win the competition.

Lyrics

Pick me! Pick me!
Pick me! Pick me! Pick me!
Pick me! Pick me!
Pick me! Pick me! Pick me!

We live in constant hop,
Someone will hear our prayer.
That some way,
That some day,
Fortune and fame,
Will point and say,
"You've made it, you're there."
Cos I want to be a superstar,
Cos I want to drive a cool new car.
Cos I know I'm the one.

Pick me! Pick me!
What will the future hold?
Pick me! Pick me!
Will I break the mould?

L.A., Broadway, baby!
Rock it up, just go crazy!
Whatever makes a star,
I know I've got it,
And I'll go far....

Pick me! Pick me!
Pick me! Pick me! Pick me!
Pick me! Pick me!
Pick me! Pick me! Pick me!

The unknown steps right up to dare me,
But I just say, "Hey!" you don't scare me.
I know that I'll go far,
And yes, I'll remember to "remember who you are."

I know when Cyril calls my name,
The panel will be astounded,
That someone so sharp, so talented,
Could be so cute, so grounded.
Pick me! Pick me!
Can't you see I'm a celeb?
Pick me! Pick me!
Won't you vote for me,
On the web?

We keep pressing forward,
No! We're not standing still.
It isn't just talent.
You have to have the will.
And maybe we're just dreaming
And it will never be.
And maybe this is seeming
Just a little harder,
Than we thought it would be!

Pick me! Pick me!
Can't you see I've got the knack?
Pick me! Pick me!
J Lo and Justin will sing on my next track.
Pick me! Pick me!
So make sure that you've voted,
Pick me! Pick me!
Make sure that I'm quoted.
Pick me! Pick me!
Give credit where it's due,
Pick me! Pick me!
You know that I'm for you.

Pick me! Pick me!
Pick me! Pick me! Pick me!
Just pick me!
