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 [bad word] and they don't [bad word] Fed to [bad word] and I hit the [bad word] 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
 [bad word] ]
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 'til 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'll never get bored
 [bad word] 2x:]
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

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 [bad word] and they don't [bad word] Fed to [bad word] and I hit the [bad word] 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
 [bad word] ]
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 moldchange 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

Кто-то сказал мне однажды, что мир меня не пощадит
И что я не самая большая рыбка в этом пруду,
Она выглядела немного глупо, когда кривлялась
И называла меня неудачником.

А годы всё идут, не останавливаются,
Устав от правил, я готов бежать на край света,
Не имеет смысла не жить ради забавы,
Твои мозги умнеют, но голова всё так же пуста.

А ведь ещё так много надо сделать и многое увидеть,
И что плохого в том, чтобы идти в обход?
Ты никогда не узнаешь, если не попробуешь,
И никогда не засияешь, если не загоришься желанием.

[Припев:]
Эй, ты! Ты - настоящая звезда, начинай свою игру, давай, играй.
Эй, ты! Ты рок-звезда, покажи шоу, всё оплачено.
На самом деле: золото - всё то, что блестит,
И только падающая звезда способна оставить свой след.
