Somebody once told me
The world is gonna roll me.
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 years start coming
And they don't stop coming.
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
It 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 street.
You never know if you don't go.
You 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. 
All that glitters is gold.
Only shooting stars break the mould.

It's a cool place.
And they say it gets colder
Think you're bundled up now
Wait til you get older.
The media man begs 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 worlds on fire,
How bout yours?
But that's the way I like it so I never get bored.

Hey now,
You're an Allstar.
Get your game on,
Go play.
Hey now,
You're a rock star.
Get the show on,
Get paid.
All that glitters is gold.
Only shooting stars
Break the mould.

Somebody once asked if I could,
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
It 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 street.
You never know if you don't go.
You'll never shine if you don't glow.

Hey now 
you're an allstar,
Get your game on,
Go play.
Hey now,
You're a rock star,
Get the show on.
Get paid.
All that glitters is gold,
Only shooting stars break the mould.
