The Stars Are Ours
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He feels the school work is ready
I was high as a kite
We gather around the kitchen table
And we're coming back to life
Rumor spreads like a virus
Bras fall, child's the night
I'm making plans across the cable man
In the ultraviolet light
Well, we're breaking all the rules
'Cause they're getting in the way
And we'll never be as young as we are today
And they claim that I'm a fool
But I look the other way
They can tell me what to do when I'm old and gray
Now the stars are ours tonight
We'll worry about tomorrow
When the sun starts shining bright
Then we'll sleep
But now the stars are ours tonight
We'll worry about tomorrow
When the sun starts shining bright
Then we'll sleep
In the cries full of terror
White with black, velvet seeds
The drunk is shaking up the neighborhood
As we terrorize the streets
Having tans out the window
Cigarette in his teeth
The neighbors telling us to slow down
Shake their heads in disbelief
Well, we're breaking all the rules
'Cause they're getting in the way
And we'll never be as young as we are today
And they claim that I'm a fool
But I look the other way
They can tell me what to do when I'm old and gray
Now the stars are ours tonight
We'll worry about tomorrow
When the sun starts shining bright
Then we'll sleep
But now the stars are ours tonight
We'll worry about tomorrow
When the sun starts shining bright
Then we'll sleep
Champagne toast to the ceiling
Peel the paint off the walls
The gang is hanging from the balcony
They'll be hell to break tomorrow
Back in class on Monday
Mad high fives in the halls
This one is going in the history books
With the legends of the fall
Well, we're breaking all the rules
'Cause they're getting in the way
And we'll never be as young as we are today
And they claim that I'm a fool
But I look the other way
They can tell me what to do when I'm old and gray
Now the stars are ours tonight
We'll worry about tomorrow
When the sun starts shining bright
Then we'll sleep
But now the stars are ours tonight
We'll worry about tomorrow
When the sun starts shining bright
Then we'll sleep
