Pop Game Lyrics


Flipping through the magazines and
Staring at the beauty queens
I wonder if I can live the way they do
Wouldn't it be nice if I could be so recognized
I wouldn't have to wait in line with all of youWhat would I want that for?
What would I need that for?[Chorus:]
I could flip backwards
Sing a little faster
Bring them all to their feet
Living like a rock star
Climbing up the pop charts
Be the flavor of the week
How would you still remember my name?
Could you still remember my name?
In the pop gameLiving in the pop game
In the pop gameI've gotta admit
I've changed a bit
But what the public wants, the public gets

And my designer jeans
They make my ass look tight
And if I play my cards correct
Well you can guarantee I'll cash the check
Cause I don't wanna live on what I'm making tonightBreak through another door
Find what I'm put here for[Chorus]So just lend your ears while I sing my song
Cause I think I can take you higher
All our friends are here
Come and sing alongAnd we all sing
La la la la la la
Come and sing with me
La la la la la la
And you sing with me, we go
La la la la la la
Oh, sing it
La la la la la la
YeahI could flip backwards
Sing a little faster
Bring them all to their feet
Living like a rock star
Climbing up the pop charts
Be the flavor of the week
Now would you still remember my name?
Could you still remember my name?
Well, if you think so go

Josh Kelley is a singer-songwriter who was born and raised in Augusta, Georgia. He began his musical odyssey at the age of 11 with a guitar. He later formed a band with his younger brother, Charles, during his teenage years called Inside Blue. At 14, the band released a five-song CD that struck the attention of a major label and led him to meeting James Brown on more than a few occasions.

Arriving at the University of Mississippi in Oxford, Mississippi, he had initial aspirations of being an art major, while also being a very capable golfer and a member of Kappa Sigma Fraternity.

Kelley released his indie album Changing Faces in 2001, signing with Hollywood in 2002. Working with John Alagia as his producer, Kelley released For The Ride Home in 2003. He also made an appearance at the Bonnaroo Music Festival in 2003. The song "Everybody Wants You" was recommended to be written by a friend to not forget who he is, while "Amazing" was possibly his first critically acclaimed hit.

Josh Kelley's 2011 record, Georgia Clay, was his first Country album; his previous work was more pop. Speaking with Songfacts in a 2011 interview, Kelley explained that Gone Like That was the song that actually started his journey into Country music. He said: "I had written and presented it to my music publisher to pitch to other artists, but they liked my demo so much they encouraged me to cut it. It was the first song I wrote that gave me the confidence to pursue a career as a Country singer."

His musical guise can be recognized akin to Jack Johnson, John Mayer, or Ben Harper.

Kelley remains a supporter of Napster-like sharing peer to peer applications for independent artists who have a difficult time receiving an audience. In fact, Kelley was "found" after accidentally targeting Eric Clinger at Hollywood Records with private spam messages using the Napster program.
