Star Songtext
von Ian Thomas

Rushing everywhere against the tide
When all along, I got nowhere to go
Trying to be a star way up high
Looking down and making quite a show

Spending money every time I needed laughter
Small talk with somebody who′s so irritating after

And all along, you were right in front of me
All along, you were right in front of me

Come on, Sonny, well, you're gonna be a star
Make lots of money and retire
And when it′s over, you'll be looking from afar
Trying to forget the mire
Star, star


Reassuring smiles that seem so real
Lead me on into a fantasy
Everybody's trying to make a deal
On everything they can get out of me

Shaking hands and all the one-night stands
The praise that always follows
Seems to leave me feeling hollow

All along, you were right in front of me
All along, you were right in front of me

Come on, Sonny, well, you′re gonna be a star
Make lots of money and retire
And when it′s over, you'll be looking from afar
Trying to forget the mire
Star, star
