Lyrics of Applause by Lady Gaga

verse

I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong
To crash the critic saying, "Is it right or is it wrong?"
If only fame had an I.V, baby could I bear?
Being away from you, I found the vein, put it in here

pre-chorus

I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause, live for the-
Way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause

chorus

Give me that thing that I love (I′ll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I′ll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)

hook

(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
Put your hands up, make ′em touch, touch

verse

I′ve overheard your theory, "Nostalgia's for geeks"
I guess sir, if you say so, some of us just like to read
One second I′m a Koons fan, suddenly the Koons is me
Pop culture was in art, now art's in pop culture, in me

pre-chorus

I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause, live for the-
Way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause

chorus

Give me that thing that I love (I′ll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I′ll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)

hook

(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
Put your hands up, make ′em touch, touch

bridge

Woo, touch, touch
Woo, touch, touch now
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

pre-chorus

I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause, live for the-
Way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause

chorus

Give me that thing that I love (I′ll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I′ll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)

hook

(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
Put your hands up, make ′em touch, touch
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch

outro

(A-R-T-P-O-P)
Writer(s): Stefani J. Germanotta, William Sami Etienne Grigahcine, Paul Edward Blair, Julien Arias, Martin Bresso, Nick Monson, Dino Zisis, Nicolas Mercier
