Chorus: |
Somebody once told me |
the world is gonna roll me |
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed |
She was lookin' kinda 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 running |
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 takin' the backstreets? |
You'll never know if ya don't go |
You'll never shine if you don't glow |
Chorus: |
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 till ya get older |
But the media men beg to differ |
Judging by the hole in the satelite 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 |
Repeat Chorus |
[Chorus 2] |
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... |
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 you're head gets dumb |
So much to do so much to see |
So what's wrong with takin' the backstreets? |
You'll never know if ya don't go |
You'll never shine if ya don't glow |
Bridge: |
x2 |
[Chorus 3] |
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 |
And all that glitters is gold |
Only shootin' stars break the mold |
