Superstar
Joe Stone Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

People always talk about (ay oh, ay oh, ay oh)
All the things they're all about (ay oh, ay oh, ay oh)
Write it on a piece of paper (paper)
Got a feeling I'll see you later (later)
There's something 'bout this
Let's keep it moving
And if it's good let's just get something cookin'
('Cause I really want to rock with you)

I'm feeling some connection to the things you do
(You do, you do)

I don't know what it is
That makes me feel like this
I don't know who you are
But you must be some kind of superstar
'Cause you got all eyes on you no matter where you are
You just make me wanna play

Baby, take a look around (ay oh, ay oh, ay oh)
Everybody's getting down (ay oh, ay oh, ay oh)
Deal with all the problems later (later)
Bad boys on their best behavior
There's something 'bout this
Let's keep it moving
And if it's good let's just get something cookin'
'Cause I really want to rock with you
I'm feeling some connection to the things you do
(You do, you do)

I don't know what it is
That makes me feel like this
I don't know who you are
But you must be some kind of superstar
'Cause you got all eyes on you no matter where you are
You just make me wanna play

Make your move
Can we get a little closer?
You rock it just like your supposed to
Hey, boy, I ain't got nothin' more to say
'Cause you just make me wanna play

I don't know what it is
That makes me feel like this
I don't know, gotta be, gotta be a superstar
All eyes on you, oh
You just make me wanna play

I don't know what it is
That makes me feel like this
I don't know who you are
But you must be some kind of superstar
'Cause you got all eyes on you no matter where you are
You just make me wanna play

I don't know what it is
That makes me feel like this
I don't know who you are
But you must be some kind of superstar

'Cause you got all eyes on you no matter where you are
(Superstar)
