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 coming and
they don't stop coming
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 taking the
back streets
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 shooting stars break the
mold
It's a cool place and they say it
gets colder
You're bundled up now but wait
'till you get older
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the
satellite picture
The ice we skate is getting
pretty thin
The waters getting warm so you
might as well swim
My world's on fire how about
yours
That's the way I like it and I
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
(And all that glitters is gold)
Only shooting stars break the
mold
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
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 coming and
they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the
