Verse 1
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.
Pre-Chorus
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.
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.
Verse 2
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.
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.
(All that glitters is gold.)
Only shootin’ stars break the mold.
Interlude
Go for the moon.
G-g-g-go for the moon.
Go for the moon.
Go-go-go for the moon.
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 shooting stars.
Bridge
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.”
Pre-Chorus
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.
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.
Outro
(And all that glitters is gold.)
Only shootin’ stars break the mold.
