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
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

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, wait till ya get older
But the media men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture

The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The water's getting warm so you might as well swim
My world's on fire, how about yours?
'Cause 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 (Repeat)

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 ya hit the ground running
Didn't make sense just 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

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
And all that glitters is gold. Only shootin stars break the mold
