[Intro: James Hetfield]
Fortune, fame, mirror vain
Gone insane, but the memory remains
[Verse 1: James Hetfield]
Heavy rings on fingers wave
Another star denies the grave
See the nowhere crowd, cry the nowhere cheers of honor
Like twisted vines that grow
Hide and swallow mansions whole
And dim the light of an already faded primadonna
[Refrain: James Hetfield]
Fortune, fame, mirror vain
Gone insane
Fortune, fame, mirror vain
Gone insane, but the memory remains
[Verse 2: James Hetfield]
Heavy rings hold cigarettes
Up to lips that time forgets
While the Hollywood sun sets behind your back
And can't the band play on?
Just listen, they play my song
Ash to ash, dust to dust
Fade to black
[Pre-Chorus: James Hetfield]
Fortune, fame, mirror vain
Gone insane (Insane)
Fortune, fame, mirror vain
Gone insane
Dance, little tin goddess
[Chorus: Marianne Faithfull]
Da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-huh
Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
[Bridge: James Hetfield]
Drift away, fade away
Little tin goddess (Insane)
Ash to ash, dust to dust
Fade to black
[Refrain: James Hetfield]
Fortune, fame, mirror vain
Gone insane (Insane)
Fortune, fame, mirror vain
Gone insane, but the memory remains
[Breakdown: James Hetfield]
Ash to ash (Ash to ash), dust to dust (Dust to dust)
Fade to black (Fade to black), the memories remain, yeah
To this faded primadonna, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus: James Hetfield]
Dance, little tin goddess, dance
[Chorus: Marianne Faithfull]
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da
Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
[Outro: Marianne Faithfull]
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da (Say yes)
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da (At least say hello)
Da-da-da-da-da (Say yes)
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da (At least say hello)
Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da
