Lyrics

Star

Gonna make you a star

And show the world your green, green eyes

See your smiling face

Everywhere, everyplace

We could turn it upside down

We could turn it inside out

We'll give you everything

Things that you'd never need

Things that you'd never dream

Things like eternity

Gonna make you a star

Make you a star

Make you a star

Gonna make you a star

You stare down at the emptiness

You shake us from our poisonous

Slumbering and stuttering

So start and stop the fall

Coarse masses down the hall

Blow you through the door

Into a million bits

We'll reassemble it

That's how we'll make a hit

Gonna make you a star

Make you a star

Make you a star

Make you a star

Make you a star
