Somebody once told me the world was 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
Bet 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 water's 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
Bet 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
Bet the show on
Get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold
Somebody once asked
Could you 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 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
Bet the show on
Get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold
you don't say
