The Stars Are Ours - Mayer Hawthorne

He feels the school work is ready

I was high as a kite

We gather around the kitchen table

And we’re coming back to life

Rumor spreads like a virus

Bras fall, child’s the night

I’m making plans across the cable man

In the ultraviolet light

Well, we’re breaking all the rules

'Cause they’re getting in the way

And we’ll never be as young as we are today

And they claim that I’m a fool

But I look the other way

They can tell me what to do when I’m old and gray

Now the stars are ours tonight

We’ll worry about tomorrow

When the sun starts shining bright

Then we’ll sleep

But now the stars are ours tonight

We’ll worry about tomorrow

When the sun starts shining bright

Then we’ll sleep

In the cries full of terror

White with black, velvet seeds

The drunk is shaking up the neighborhood

As we terrorize the streets

Having tans out the window

Cigarette in his teeth

The neighbors telling us to slow down

Shake their heads in disbelief

Well, we’re breaking all the rules

'Cause they’re getting in the way

And we’ll never be as young as we are today

And they claim that I’m a fool

But I look the other way

They can tell me what to do when I’m old and gray

Now the stars are ours tonight

We’ll worry about tomorrow

When the sun starts shining bright

Then we’ll sleep

But now the stars are ours tonight

We’ll worry about tomorrow

When the sun starts shining bright

Then we’ll sleep

Champagne toast to the ceiling

Peel the paint off the walls

The gang is hanging from the balcony

They’ll be hell to break tomorrow

Back in class on Monday

Mad high fives in the halls

This one is going in the history books

With the legends of the fall

Well, we’re breaking all the rules

'Cause they’re getting in the way

And we’ll never be as young as we are today

And they claim that I’m a fool

But I look the other way

They can tell me what to do when I’m old and gray

Now the stars are ours tonight

We’ll worry about tomorrow

When the sun starts shining bright

Then we’ll sleep

But now the stars are ours tonight

We’ll worry about tomorrow

When the sun starts shining bright

Then we’ll sleep
