KNOWN FOR LOVE
I heard of a man who juggled chain saws, he juggled them three at a time
He did it so well, he set a world record, he had his moment to shine
He became a celebrity for performing a feat so tough
I said to myself, “that’s all well and good, but I’d rather be known for love”
I’d rather be KNOWN FOR LOVE
I’d rather be KNOWN FOR LOVE
That’s all that really matters
I’d rather be KNOWN FOR LOVE
A friend of mine called, said he needed a partner to sail clear across the sea
He’d be leaving soon in his homemade vessel, he’d like to sail it with me
He wanted to go and do it faster than anyone else had one
I quickly said, “I wish you well, but I’d rather be known for love”

So many people spend so much time trying to make a name
What kind of price are they willing to pay for fifteen minutes of fame?
