Lyrics

How the great have fallen
See how life has passed them by
Was anybody looking in the crystal ball
When his star was on the rise

Stuffing his face with canned ham sandwich spread
He was on the road to stardom, stayed a salesman instead
What happened?

What makes one kid a star ?
What makes the other just another woman's child ?
I saw the tv
Watch the fat kid grin
Watch america go wild!
But he's not the famous child star anymore
He's just the funny looking guy in the stereo store

The fickleness of fame and fortune's caprice
Together changed the life of mason reese

You can still see mason in the underwood ads
At the back of your mind
Or you can see mason at the crazy eddie store
On the upper west side
Watching gary coleman and emannuel lewis
He knows how much old dwarf child stars mean to us

The fickleness of fame and fortune's caprice
Together changed the life of mason reese
