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