Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
|
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
|
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
|
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
|
Well, the years start comin’ and they don't stop comin'
|
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground runnin’
|
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
|
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
|
So much to do, so much to see
|
So what's wrong with taking the backstreets?
|
You'll never know if you don't go
|
You'll never shine if you don't glow
|
Hey now, you're an all-star
|
Get your game on, go play
|
Hey now, you’re a rock star
|
Get the show on, get paid
|
And all that glitters is gold
|
Only shootin’ stars break the mold
|
It's a cool place, and they say it gets colder
|
You’re bundled up now, wait 'til you get older
|
But the meteor men beg to differ
|
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
|
The ice we skate is gettin' pretty thin
|
The water's gettin’ warm so you might as well swim
|
My world's on fire, how 'bout yours?
|
That's the way I like it and I'll never get bored
|
Hey now, you're an all-star
|
Get your game on, go play
|
Hey now, you're a rock star
|
Get the show on, get paid
|
All that glitters is gold
|
Only shootin' stars break the mold
|
Somebody once asked
|
Could I spare some change for gas?
|
"I need to get myself away from this place"
|
I said, "Yep, what a concept
|
I could use a little fuel myself
|
And we could all use a little change"
|
Well, the years start comin' and they don't stop comin'
|
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground runnin'
|
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
|
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
|
So much to do, so much to see
|
So what's wrong with taking the backstreets?
|
You'll never know if you don't go (Go!)
|
You'll never shine if you don't glow
|
Hey now, you're an all-star
|
Get your game on, go play
|
Hey now, you're a rock star
|
Get the show on, get paid
|
And all that glitters is gold
|
Only shootin' stars break the mold
|
Hey now (Hey now)
|
Hey now (Hey now)
|
He-He-Hey now (Hey now)
|
Hey now (Hey now)
|
Hey now, you're an all-star
|
(Hey now, you're an all-star, you're an all-star)
|
Hey now, you're an all-star
|
(Hey now, you're an all-star, you're an all-star)
|
Hey now, you're an all-star
|
(Hey now, you're an all-star, you're an all-star)
|
Only shootin' stars break the mold |
