Superchick Big Star Machine Lyrics

Would someone help me comprehend
How my wanting to have friends is now this monster that I feed
It's popularity I need
When people think that I'm the deal
It helps me feel like I am real
but I think I lost the me looking for the star machine
I don't want any part of it everything is...
(CHORUS)
Here today, gone tomorrow
Big star machine
Ricky Martin or Menudo
Big star machine
VH1 ³where are they² follows
Big star machine
How could I have been so shallow
Big big star machine
Could someone help me comprehend
How I came to judge my friends
On a scale of trendiness
And somehow I love them less
Not as hip as they could be
Through the eyes of star machine
It's a dumb philosophy
To judge my popularity
I don't want any part of it everything is...
