All Star (Metal Cover)

Somebody once told me

The world is 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 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

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 is 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

Get 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

Get the show on, get paid

And all that glitters is gold

Only shooting 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 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 backstreets

You'll never know if you don't go (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 shooting stars break the mold
