The Jezabels - Be A Star lyrics
[The Jezabels - Be A Star lyrics]
With my out of tune guitar we
Walked from bar to bar
We were only seventeen but we
Were going to be stars
Came across a man who could stop the
World with a clap of his hands
Said you've got the attitude who's
Got the attitude for rock?
But she was never going to be a star
She would swim rivers
And climb mountains far away
But who caught the maid and made her come?
When she was shining like the rising sun
Shining like the rising sun
You shine like the sun to me
So welcome to the town where
Drag queens made the cash
Selling kids acid tabs we tried
To find their stash
But acid's no good so I got over that
I'm much too old for taking crap
And who's got the attitude for ice now?
Oh he was never meant to be a boy
He would climb rivers
And swim mountains the wrong way
But who caught the babe and made him cry?
Oh, I wanted you but your eyes
Don't shine like they used to
God I want it all but you guys
Don't like all the old songs
Old songs, new songs, everybody write
Write on little honey we can
Write all night wright on
As long as you've got stars in your eyes
You keep me coming back to you
Oh, I wanted you but your eyes
Don't shine like they used to
God I want it all but you guys
Don't like all the old songs so write on
Write on as long as you've
Got stars in your eyes
You keep me coming back to you
Oh she was never going to be a star
But who has got the attitude for love anyway?
Walked from bar to bar
We were only seventeen but we
Were going to be stars
Came across a man who could stop the
World with a clap of his hands
Said you've got the attitude who's
Got the attitude for rock?
But she was never going to be a star
She would swim rivers
And climb mountains far away
But who caught the maid and made her come?
When she was shining like the rising sun
Shining like the rising sun
You shine like the sun to me
So welcome to the town where
Drag queens made the cash
Selling kids acid tabs we tried
To find their stash
But acid's no good so I got over that
I'm much too old for taking crap
And who's got the attitude for ice now?
Oh he was never meant to be a boy
He would climb rivers
And swim mountains the wrong way
But who caught the babe and made him cry?
Oh, I wanted you but your eyes
Don't shine like they used to
God I want it all but you guys
Don't like all the old songs
Old songs, new songs, everybody write
Write on little honey we can
Write all night wright on
As long as you've got stars in your eyes
You keep me coming back to you
Oh, I wanted you but your eyes
Don't shine like they used to
God I want it all but you guys
Don't like all the old songs so write on
Write on as long as you've
Got stars in your eyes
You keep me coming back to you
Oh she was never going to be a star
But who has got the attitude for love anyway?
