text: I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong
  To crash the critic saying, “Is it right or is it wrong?”
  If only fame had an IV
  Baby, could I bear being away from you
  I found the vein, put it in here
  I live for the applause, applause, applause
  I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause
  Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
  The applause, applause, applause
  Give me that thing that I love 
  Put your hands up, make em touch 
  Give me that thing that I love 
  Put your hands up, make em touch 
  A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E 
  Put your hands up, make em touch, touch
  A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E 
  Put your hands up, make em touch, touch
  Ive overheard your theory “Nostalgias for geeks”
  I guess sir if you say so
  Some of us just like to read
  One second Im a Koons, then suddenly the Koons is me
  Pop culture was in art, now art’s in pop culture, in me
  I live for the applause, applause, applause
  I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause
  Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
  The applause, applause, applause
  Give me that thing that I love 
  Put your hands up, make em touch 
  Give me that thing that I love 
  Put your hands up, make em touch 
  A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E 
  Put your hands up, make em touch, touch
  A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E 
  Put your hands up, make em touch, touch
  Woo...
  Touch, touch
  Woo...
  Touch, touch, now...
  Woo-oh-oh-oh...
  I live for the applause, applause, applause
  I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause
  Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
  The applause, applause, applause
  Give me that thing that I love 
  Put your hands up, make em touch 
  Give me that thing that I love 
  Put your hands up, make em touch 
  A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E 
  Put your hands up, make em touch, touch
  A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E 
  Put your hands up, make em touch, touch
