Flamboyant (original demo) Lyrics

You live in a world of excess
Where more is more and less is much less
A day without fame is a waste
And a question of need is a question of tasteYou're so flamboyant the way you look
It gets you so much attention
Your sole employment is getting more
You want police intervention
You're so, flamboyant the way you live
You really care that they stare
And the press deployment
Is always there, It's what you do for enjoymentYou live in a time of decay
When the worth of a man is how much he can play
Every day all the public must know
Where you are, what you do
Cause your life is a show andYou're so flamboyant the way you live
And it's not even demeaning
You're so flamboyant It's like a drug
You use to give your life meaning

You're so flamboyant The way you look
It gets you so much attention
Your sole employment Is getting more
You want police interventionEvery actor needs
An audience
Every action is
A performance
It all takes courage you know it
Just crossing the street well, it's almost heroic
You're so flamboyantThere you are, at another preview
In a pose, the artist and you
To look so loud may be considered tacky
Collectors wear black clothes by Issay MiakeYou're so flamboyant the way you look
It gets you so much attention
Your sole employment is getting more
You want police intervention
You're so flamboyant
The way you live
You really care that they stare
And the press deployment
Is always there
It's what you do for enjoymentYou're so flamboyantYou're so flamboyant
