Starmites - DIVA! Lyrics

DIVA:
It's hard to be a Diva, baby - It's hard to be
divine...hard...hard

It's hard to be the Diva, it's hard to be Divine
To live the life of fever with your guts on the line!
It's hard to be the Diva, the stories I could tell
My life may seem like heaven, babe, but boy is it hell!

Cause it's hard, yes, it's hard, oh it's hard, baby, it's hard
It's a hard hard hard hard lot when you've got to be
Diva! (And I'm the Diva!)

Just keepin' your veneer up can be a full time job
To build a great career up when you were once a slob!
Well, people can be vicious, with minds so crude and small
But I won't break the dishes - I'm a big hearted gal!
(But it's hard...etc.)

BANSHEES: Diva d-d-Diva divine...(etc.)

DIVA:
I hate to be immodest, I hate to be a bore
But when you greet a goddess get your face on the floor!
If you want to please the Diva,
Good taste you must exude
You can lie and steal and cheat
But honey, never be rude. (Cause it's hard...etc.)

BANSHEES: Diva d-d-Diva divine...(etc.)

DIVA:
But don't get over-eager cause when all is said and done
In the limelight with the Diva there can only be one.
It's hard to be the Diva, but take a tip from me
It may be hard to be the Diva, but it's so much harder
not to be! (Oh it's hard...etc.)

It's a hard, hard, hard, hard lot, I kid you not
A hard, hard, hard, hard lot, my nerves are shot!
A hard, hard, hard, hard lot when you've got to be Diva!

BANSHEES: You better believe her!
DIVA: And I'm the Diva!
BANSHEES: (endlessly) You better -
DIVA: Shut up!

DIVA
