Lyrics

7 to 9. Rally up for primetime
Hollywood’s brilliant design
Your Idols are primmed and primed and all aligned
7 to 9 the numb will decide

Everyone wants to be the star
Who will shine on?
Just want to scream, No Forfeit I will move on!

No time to be afraid
Millions over millions all want to have it made
Times like these you stand up to the fight
Guess love and art is the battle field tonight

Everyone wants to be the star
Who will shine on?
Just want to scream, No Forfeit I will move on!

What happened to music and art?
Disappeared somewhere in the new millennium
Off that Hollywood boulevard
Sold like cheap sugar tricks laced with cinnamon
That’s the new reality
Watching TV, sofa king and queens
So put another soul on the line

Everyone wants to be the star
Who will shine on?
Just want to scream, No Forfeit I will move on!
I will move on!
I will move on!
