Scissor Sisters - Ambition

I've been a movie star
Confused by the film
A plot too complicated for me
Played the policeman
'Cause he knows the drill
He's got to beat the competition away
Ambition, oh so dirty
Keep smiling, and know that they'll never know
Ambition ain't so pretty
That knocking'll open up another door
I've got the cravin'
And you've got it too
It's just an old fashioned kind of position
Sweet aspiration
There's no more time
What's the sense in hanging on when you ain't mine
Give me attention
Be my divine
We may be different creatures but we're pink inside
I am a moving car
With wishes for wheels
Driving at the speed of dissention
How you're connected
Is how you can feel
What accomplishment can do for contention
Ambition, oh so dirty
Keep smiling, and know that they'll never know
Ambition ain't so pretty
That knocking'll open up another door
I've climbed to heaven
And you'll be there too
It's just an old timer incarceration
Grey night oppression
What do you say
When you look the other way it ain't me
Give me attention
Be my divine
We may be different creatures but we're pink inside

@@TorturousInceptionn it was also the B Side to I Don't Feel Like Dancing. I have the CD single somewhere. Funny because I thought it was crap back then but there's a couple of songs on Ta Dah I'd happily replace with this and Transistor!
