V.I.P.

Iggy Pop · Beat 'em Up [2001]

I'm a Very Important Person

I park in the V.I.P

And when I go to the bathroom,

I go in the V.I.P toilet

And when I wanna change a lightbalb,

I don't do it myself... Oooohhh no...

I have a technician

Cause I'm a V.I.P

I'm a V.I.P

I'm a V.I.P

I'm a V.I.P

Now,as I began to become a V.I.P,

I forgot what I've become a V.I.P for

I began to grow accustommed to people saying

"Right this way sir...drinks are on the house..."

Flight attendants on airplanes saying :



"Please...Really, I don't wanna bother you sir,

but it's such a pleasure to have you on board.

May I have your autograph for my daughter?"

"Yeah baby right after I go to the toilet

I'll give you a couple of'em

Cause i'm a V.I.P!"



Now, one thing about V.I.P is, is they never seem to be alone

Ooohh no!

The "true" V.I.P must travel with an entourage!

People who say "Right on boss"

Cause it's a V.I.P!

Right on boss

I'm a V.I.P!

As I began to realise that I had gained V.I.P status,

worries began to creep in

What if one day, I woke up, and I was no longer a V.I.P?

No more good tables at the restaurants...

No more strange women smiling and approaching me on the streets...

No more top notch booty

No more entourage to say "Right boss"

I began to have nightmares

And in my nightmares, I was just a fucking nobody.

Laying at the beach, imagining myself being a VIP!

Just like I was before...

Hearing the applause in my head

Beautiful warm embraces of superior members of the female gender...
