Lyrics

    Hey Mr. Superstar:
    "I'll do anything for you"
    "I'm you're number one fan"
    hey mr. porno star, I, I, I, I want you
    hey mr. sickly star,
    I want to get sick from you
    hey mr. fallen star,
    don't you know I worship you?
    hey mr. big rock star,
    "I wanna grow up just like you"
    I know that I can turn you on
    I wish I could just turn you off
    I never wanted this
    hey mr. superhate,
    I just want to love you
    hey, hey, hey mr. superfuck,
    I wanna go down on you
    hey mr. supergod,
    will you answer my prayers?
    hey, hey, hey mr. superman,
    I want to be your little girl
    I know that I can turn you on
    I wish I could just turn you off
    I never wanted this
    hey mr. superstar,
    I'll kill myself for you
    hey mr. superstar,
    I'll kill you if I can't have you
    superstar, superfuck baby...

Trivia

• "Mr. Superstar" was a working title for the song.
• The song's opening riff is also used in the introduction of "Dried Up, Tied and Dead to the World."
• The lyrics "I wish you'd kill yourself on T.V" could be a reference to the televised suicide of R. Budd Dwyer, Pennsylvania treasurer, in 1987.
