Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed She was lookin' kind of dumb With her finger and her thumb And the shape of an L on her forehead Well, the years start comin' and they don't stop comin' Fed to the rules and I hit the ground runnin' 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 takin' 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 Get the show on, get paid And all that matters 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 you get older But the media men beg to differ Judging 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 But world's on fire, how about yours? That's the way I like it and I'll 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 matters is gold Only shootin' stars break the mold Go for the moonset Go, go, go, go, go, go, go Go for the moonset Go, go, go, go, go, go, go Go for the moonset Go, go, go, go, go, go, go 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 matters 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 years start comin' and they don't stop comin' Fed to the rules and I'll hit the ground runnin' 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 takin' 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 Get the show on, get paid And all that matters is gold Only shootin' stars break the mold And all that matters is gold Only shootin' stars break the mold
