A combination of the two hit songs “All Star” by Smash Mouth and “Last Christmas” by Wham! This continues the Mouth trilogy’s tradition of putting All Star with other unlikely songs.
The title is also a pun on Last Christmas. Last sounds similar to Smash, so Neil decided to replace Last with Smash,...
[Verse 1]
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
[Pre-Chorus (with Wham!)]
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but you gave it away
So much to do, so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the backstreets?
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow (special)
[Chorus]
Hey now, you're an all star
Get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star
Get the show on, get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold
[Verse 2]
It's a cool place, and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now, wait 'til you get older
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The water's getting warm so you might as well swim
My world's on fire, how 'bout yours?
That's the way I like it and I'll never get bored
[Chorus]
Hey now, you're an all star
Get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star
Get the show on, get paid
All that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold
[whisling interlude]
(you gave it away)
(special)
[Chorus]
Hey now, you're an all star
Get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star
Get the show on, get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars
[Verse 3]
Somebody once asked, “could I spare some change for gas?
I need to get myself away from this place"
I said, "Yep, what a concept
I could use a little fuel myself and we could all use a little change"
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do, so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the backstreets?
You'll never know if you don't go (Go!)
You'll never shine if you don't glow
[Chorus (with Wham!)]
Hey now, you're an all star (A face on a lover)
Get your game on, go play (with a fire in his heart)
Hey now, you're a rock star (A man undercover)
Get the show on, get paid (but you tore him apart)
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold
[Outro (with Wham!)]
And all that glitters is gold (Last Christmas, I gave you my heart)
Only shooting stars break the mold (but the very next day)
(you gave it away)
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold (special)
And all that glitters is gold (I gave you my heart)
Only shooting stars break the mold (but the very next day you gave it away)
And all that glitters is gold... (this year to save me from tears...)
