I don't want to end up beached on this shore
I want to be that star”
If there was a God then why is my arse
He said, “I'll shine for you that's what I'll do”
He said, “The sun gives life and it takes it away
That's what I'll do
I want to be that star
Yeah that one right there"
Following that pin hole in the sky
She said, “I don't mind, I don't want to get bored
She said, “Would you go away and shine?
He said, "The three wise men came a long way
She said, “What's a wonderful way to wake me”
They're closer that they seem
You're such an asshole when you're drunk
The perfect height of kicking?”
You weren't so nice last night
I want to be that star
I'll shine for you that's what I'll do
It'll burn out someday"
He said, “I'll shine for you, I'll burn for you
And then I'll burn for you
And from this gutter, we're still starin' at the stars”
He said, “At least I'm okay in the mornings”
I want to be that star
'Cause they sang to you of hope”
But like all the greats
And then I can shine for you
He said, “They're like headlights in the rear view mirror
She said, “I don't believe in any old Jesus
Last night all you did was curse those stars
