Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll ya 
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 hits [bad word] and they don't [bad word] 
Head to [bad word] and ya hit the [bad word] 
Didn't make sense just to live for fun  
You're 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 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 till ya get older. 
But the media men beg to differ 
Judgin 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 about yours? 
Cuz 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 shootin stars 

Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas 
I need to get myself away from this place 
I guess 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 hits [bad word] and they don't [bad word] 
Head to [bad word] and I hit the [bad word] 
Didn't make sense just to live for fun, 
You're brain gets smart but the head gets dumb 
So much to do so much to see 
So what's wrong with takin 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
