Van morrison new biography lyrics

See you've got the new biography

Where did they get the info from

Same as before some, so called friends

Who claim to have, known me then

How come they've got such good memories

And I can't even remember last week

Got to queston where they're coming from

What knowledge of me is it that they speak



So far away, way back when

The people that claim, to have known me then

Not on my wavelength and it's such a shame

That they have to play the name game

The fame game, oh the name game,

Lord it's a cryin' shame

Lord tell me what's to blame



Reinvented all the stories they know

Give them all a different slant

What is it that they're really looking for

Just a hobby on the internet



So far away, way back when

The people that claim, to have known me then

Not on my wavelength and it's such a shame

That they have to play the name game

The fame game, the name game,

Oh it's such a cryin' shame, tell me who's to blame



If they didn't really know me way back

How can they know me now, in any respect

It's a pity they don't feel the pain

That they should pay the price to play, to play

The fame game, the name game

It's such a cryin' shame, please tell me who's to blame



Not on my wavelength and it's such a shame

That they have to play, have to play the fame game

Oh the name game, it's a cryin' shame

Please tell me who's to blame

They keep on playin'

The fame game, oh the name game

It's such a cryin' shame, please tell me who's to blame

Keep on playin' the fame game

Lord, the name game, its such a cryin' shame

Please tell me who's to blame

They just keep on playin' the fame game

Oh the name game, its such a cryin' shame

Please tell me who's to blame
