I traded fame for love
Without a second thought
It all became a silly game
Some things cannot be bought
Got exactly what I asked for
Wanted it so badly
Running, rushing back for more
I suffered fools
So gladly
And now I find
I’ve changed my mind
The face of you
My substitute for love
                           ---Madonna (Drowned World/Substitute for Love)
