Lyrics:

I used to play the clown
Making headlines in this town
I was living – the pop life

Everybody stared
At the make up that I weared
I was living – the pop life

Everything I did was new
And I didn't really have a clue
I made some people rich
Got treated like a bitch – pop life

It was 1981
When I finally had some fun
Really livin' – the pop life

Travelling round the world
With a dozen crazy girls
We were living – the pop life

They taught me a trick or two
Like how to never never get the blues
It's easy when you know
How to let your spirit go – pop life
It's alright – all night – pop life
You get it right – it's outa site – pop life

Now I'm getting old
I'm just doing what I'm told
I 'ain't livin' – the pop life

I made a little bread
Got a forty acre spread
Thanks to living the pop life

It's alright – my life – the pop life
It's outa site -all night – the pop life
Yeah the high light – of my life – was the pop life
