Paige Bolen of MSU's Ladies First sings,"Paparazzi" is a song by American recording artist Lady Gaga, released as the final single from her debut album, The Fame. Written by Rob Fusari and Gaga, the song was the album's third single in the United Kingdom, Ireland and Italy, the fourth in Canada and the United States and the fifth in Australia, New Zealand and France. It was released on July 6, 2009 in the United Kingdom and four days later in Australia. Initially, "LoveGame" had been planned as the third single release in the United Kingdom, but it was decided that "Paparazzi" would be released instead because of the potentially controversial lyrics and music video of "LoveGame".[3] The song was written by Gaga to portray her struggles with her quest for fame. It is an up-tempo dance song whose lyrics describe a stalker following somebody to grab attention and fame.
"Paparazzi" has been critically acclaimed for its fun-filled, club-friendly nature. The accompanying music video shows Gaga as a doomed starlet, hounded by photographers, who is almost killed by her boyfriend. It shows her survival, comeback, revenge on her boyfriend, and experiences on the way to fame. The song reached the top ten of the official charts in Australia, Canada, Ireland and United Kingdom, while reaching number one in Germany and the Czech Republic. In the United States it has reached six on the Billboard Hot 100.
Gaga performed the song live at The Fame Ball Tour, where it was the opening song, the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, where she won Best Art Direction and Best Special Effects awards, and on Saturday Night Live in October 2009. As a Rapunzel-like character, she also performed it on The Monster Ball Tour. On the second leg of the tour Gaga performed the song alongside a giant anglerfish who attempted to devour her, but was killed after her leotard shoots sparks into the monster.

Song lyrics:
We are the crowd,
We're c-coming out

Got my flash on, it's true
Need that picture of you
It so magical
We'd be so fantastico

Leather and jeans
Garage Glamorous
Not sure what it means
But this photo of us it don't have a price
Ready for those flashing lights,
Cause you know that baby I

I'm your biggest fan
I'll follow you until you love me
Papa-paparazzi,
Baby there's no other superstar
You know that I'll be
Your Papa-paparazzi

Promise I'll be kind,
But I won't stop until that boy is mine
Baby you'll be famous, chase you down
until you love me, papa-paparazzi

I'll be your girl
Backstage at your show,
Velvet ropes and guitars,
Yeah, cause you're my rockstar
In between the sets
Eyeliner and cigarettes

Shadow is burnt
Yellow dance and we turn
My lashes are dry
Purple teardrops I cry
It don't have a price
Loving you is cherry pie
'Cause you know that baby I

Im your biggest fan
I'll follow you until you love me
Papa-paparazzi,
Baby there's no other superstar
You know that i'll be
Your Papa-paparazzi

Promise i'll be kind,
But i won't stop until that boy is mine
Baby you'll be famous
Chase you down until you love me
Papa-paparazzi

Im your biggest fan
I'll follow you until you love me
Papa-paparazzi,
Baby there's no other superstar
You know that i'll be
Your Papa-paparazzi

Promise i'll be kind,
But i won't stop until that boy is mine
Baby you'll be famous
Chase you down until you love me
Papa-paparazzi
