About

The anti-city sentiment of the album is continued in this song as Ray Davies seems to spin a cautionary tale of a person who was swept up by the allure of the city and taken down a destructive path of overindulgence and alcoholism.

Starstruck Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Baby, you don't know what you're saying
Because you're a victim of bright city lights
And your mind is not right
You think the world's at your feet

[Chorus]
'Cause you're starstruck, baby, starstruck
You're taken in by the lights (You know that you're starstruck baby, starstruck)
You think you'll never look back (You know that you're starstruck baby, starstruck, you know that you're...)
You know you're starstruck on me

[Verse 2]
Baby, you're running around like you're crazy
You go to a party and dance through the night
And you'll drink 'til you're tight
And then you're out on your feet

[Chorus]
'Cause you're starstruck, baby, starstruck
You're taken in by the lights (You know that you're starstruck baby, starstruck)
You think you'll never look back (You know that you're starstruck baby, starstruck, you know that you're...)
You know you're starstruck on me

[Bridge]
Ba-ba-ra, ba-ba-ba-ra-ra-ra
Ba-pa-ba-ra, ba-pa-ba-ra-ra (Yeah!)
Ba-pa-ba-ra, ba-pa-ba-ra-ra-ra
Ba-pa-ba-ra, ba-pa-ba-ra-ra-ra

[Verse 2]
Baby, watch out or else you'll be ruined
'Cause once you're addicted to wine and champagne
It's gonna drive you insane
Because the world's not so tame

[Chorus]
And you're starstruck, baby, starstruck
You're taken in by the lights (You know that you're starstruck baby, starstruck)
You think you'll never look back (You know that you're starstruck baby, starstruck, you know that you're...)
Ooh, starstruck on me

[Outro]
Don't you know that you are (Starstruck on me)
And you always will be (Starstruck on me)
Ooh, yeah (Starstruck on me)
Starstruck on me
La-ah, la-la
La-ah, la-la
