Van Morrison - Stage Name lyrics
[Van Morrison - Stage Name lyrics]
It's a stage name not a real name
Could be a nickname or a make-it-stick name
It's a stage name not a real name
Could be a nickname
Have-to make-it-stick name
Travel incognito move behind the scenes
Spin under the radar
If I wanna follow my dream
Leave it all behind me pick my getaway
Maybe the grass is greener from far away
It's a stage name not a real name
Could be a nickname or a make-it-stick name
It's a stagе name not a real name
Could bе a nickname
Have-to make-it-stick name
Must have been off the rails
To believe in a movie star name
It may have seemed like a good idea
At the time well, further on up the timeline
It no longer jives, but undermines
I guess I'll have to go back
To my proper real name
It's my stage name it's not my real name
Could be a nickname
I have-to make-it-stick name
It's my stage name it's not my real name
Might be a nickname
I have-to make-it-stick name
One of them's Ringo and Sting
Tell me, what a bad thing
If every woman and man is a star
How do you know who you are?
If Thomas Woodward is Tom Jones
Then I know I'm not alone
And if Cliff is Harry Webb
And Clive is Georgie Fame
What the hell? Man, this is really insane
Have we gone off the rails
Or is this just a name game?
It's my stage name not my real name
Could be my nickname
Have-to make-it-stick name
It's my stage name it's not my real name
Could be a nickname
Have-to make-it-stick say it again
It's my stage name it's not my real name
It used to be my nickname
I have-to make-it-stick name
It's my stage name it's not my real name
It used to be my nickname
Now-I make-it-stick name
Could be a nickname or a make-it-stick name
It's a stage name not a real name
Could be a nickname
Have-to make-it-stick name
Travel incognito move behind the scenes
Spin under the radar
If I wanna follow my dream
Leave it all behind me pick my getaway
Maybe the grass is greener from far away
It's a stage name not a real name
Could be a nickname or a make-it-stick name
It's a stagе name not a real name
Could bе a nickname
Have-to make-it-stick name
Must have been off the rails
To believe in a movie star name
It may have seemed like a good idea
At the time well, further on up the timeline
It no longer jives, but undermines
I guess I'll have to go back
To my proper real name
It's my stage name it's not my real name
Could be a nickname
I have-to make-it-stick name
It's my stage name it's not my real name
Might be a nickname
I have-to make-it-stick name
One of them's Ringo and Sting
Tell me, what a bad thing
If every woman and man is a star
How do you know who you are?

What the hell? Man, this is really insane

It's my stage name not my real name

It's my stage name it's not my real name
Could be a nickname
Have-to make-it-stick say it again
It's my stage name it's not my real name
It used to be my nickname
I have-to make-it-stick name
It's my stage name it's not my real name
It used to be my nickname
Now-I make-it-stick name
