I do not count myself among you
I may be living in a dream
It's just there seem so many of you
Can't help but hope
There's a difference between
You and me

You're a star
Ooh I'm talking to you
You're a star

Chorus:
Maybe your momma gave you up boy
It's the same old same old
Maybe your daddy didn't love you enough girl

Star people
Never forget your secret's safe with me
Just look at all the wonderful people
Trying to forget they had to pay for what you see

It's a dream
With a nightmare stuck in the middle
But listen brother where would you be
Without all of that attention
You'd die
I'd die
We'd die, wouldn't we
Well wouldn't we

Big big star!
Should go far!

Repeat Chorus

Talk about your mother
Talk about your father
Talk about the poeple
Who have made you what you are
Talk about your teacher
The bully boy who beat you
Talk about the people who have paid
For that new sports car

Did you get off on a bad foot baby
Do you have a little tale to tell
Is that why you're a star?
Is that what makes a star?

And nothing comes from nothing baby
That fame and fortune's heaven sent
And who gives a fuck about your problems, darling
When you can pay the rent
How much is enough?
