We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
Then count the stars and the ten million woes
Such a good, good story to tell
We couldn't get enough
You fake, you fake, you fake, you fake
We never thought that we'd get caught up
As we explode, as we let
And it's wild and we never thought that we'd get caught up
We're gonna go far, we're gonna go far
You smoke, you toke, you want, you flaunt
At lunch break, lunch break, lunch break, lunch break
By a man she thought was fine, didn't tell anybody
As we explode, as we explode
Then getting drunk in the bushes by the road outside the K-Mart
Peso roda ginga joga
You bully, you break, you bully, you break
We're not very far, we're not very far
With a lighter and some hairspray smoking in the girls' room
Vera's face burnt as a memory of bedroom fun
We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
Not worse than Shelley's rape behind the McDonald's
Stuck in the teenage waste
More than a battle scar, such a good, good story to tell
And it's you and me in the open air
As we explode, as we explode
As we explode, as we explode
Just you and the universe judging each other
As we explode, as we let go
Stuck in the teenage waste
We never knew that we'd get caught up
Now we look back and see that she didn't know how
Stuck in the teenage waste
It's truth or dare, we don't care
Got a shiner now and it's more than a battle scar
You hit it and you're in it and it's spinning
Slip the acid on your tongue rooftop mall parkade
Or maybe back then we just thought that she was getting some
It's a fight, it's a fight and you finally belong
Rolling around in them to see if you would get prickled
