lyrics

I recall the day you came around
you'd think you owned the town
without a worry or a frown
did I miss something?
you gave some talk about some mindless piece of information
something I could only view with doubt

I think you got it wrong
You think you're so damn strong
You've been talking for so long
about some backwards thought, I knew it all along

Superstar!

Some girl she thinks that she can tell
exactly what it was that you was looking for
the cause or the effect!
made up my mind that I'd ignore the frilly mystery you caused
to try to hide the tarnished pennies 'round your neck

I see it in your eyes
you know you tried to lie
you got nowhere else to hide from all your pride
your hands are tied and so are mine

I recall the day you died
remember how I cried
I thought I tried but you were something else inside
I guess you fooled me for so long
So very superstar! that's what you are
I always knew that you'd go far!

I think you got it wrong
You think you're so damn strong
You've been talking for so long
about some backwards thought, I knew it all along

I see it in your eyes
you know you tried to lie
you got nowhere else to hide from all your pride
your hands are tied and so are mine

Superstar!
