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 start coming and they don't stop coming

Head to the rules and ya hit the ground running

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 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 shootin 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 hits start coming and they don't stop coming

Head to the rules and I hit the ground running

Didn't make sense just to live for fun,

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

And all that glitters is gold

Only shootin stars break the mold
