Big Star

you can dress yourself up

put on a little bit of makeup

go out and get a haircut

and stumble out into the morning

they'll all hate you tomorrow

when no one buys your single

when you fall you look the other way

they're going to buy you airplanes

fly you all over the oceans

give you all the loving that you need

give you all the loving that you need

gonna be a big star

waiting

on a big wish

i'm making

they're gonna call you "baby"

treat you like a symbol

something that they'll never understand

i'm gonna read your stories

spend springtime in the gardens

tell my children all about the days

but i can't make you happy

i can't make you money

i can only fold your laundry

gonna be a big star

waiting

on a big wish

i'm making
