[00:07.59]The bell rings
[00:08.94]I'd run out the gate
[00:10.89]School is done for another day
[00:14.52]Then I'd get home
[00:16.38]I'd go to my room
[00:18.03]Put my records on
[00:19.98]And dream away
[00:21.99]I'm up on that stage singing away
[00:25.71]And all of my problems
[00:27.36]They just drift away
[00:29.34]Then daddy says
[00:30.75]"What will you do with your life?"
[00:33.09]And this is what I said to him
[00:36.36]I wanna be a pop star
[00:40.08]Like Duran Duran
[00:41.31]Depeche Mode, and A-ha
[00:51.60]Rock it up like U2
[00:59.13]Simple Minds, and Bon Jovi
[01:06.24]I'd write good songs and sing away
[01:10.26]Then the world would
[01:11.49]Come to hear me play
[01:13.44]My pop heroes would say
[01:15.72]"Well done boy
[01:18.84]You're a pop star now"
[01:24.96]I'm not good, at fitting in
[01:28.23]School is tough, what can I say
[01:32.79]It's such a shame
[01:33.60]Listen to your heart
[01:35.85]Love's strange
[01:37.32]So real in the dark...
[01:39.12]Still haven't found
[01:41.07]What I'm looking for
[01:43.20]I put on my red shoes
[01:45.09]And dance the blues
[01:46.86]My brother says don't
[01:48.51]You forget about me
[01:50.52]So this is what I said to him...
[02:53.91]With love, I shy away
[02:57.00]What I'd do for an uptown girl
[03:00.33]Running up that hill is all I know
[03:04.26]So, save a prayer I fade to grey
[03:07.59]You keep me hanging on
[03:09.99]I'm all stood still
[03:11.82]I wait for the day when I'm big in Japan
[03:15.24]Then my sister says wouldn't it be good
[03:19.14]And this is what I said to her

The bell rings
I'd run out the gate
School is done for another day
Then I'd get home
I'd go to my room
Put my records on
And dream away
I'm up on that stage singing away
And all of my problems
They just drift away
Then daddy says
"What will you do with your life?"
And this is what I said to him
I wanna be a pop star
Like Duran Duran
Depeche Mode, and A-ha
Rock it up like U2
Simple Minds, and Bon Jovi
I'd write good songs and sing away
Then the world would
Come to hear me play
My pop heroes would say
"Well done boy
You're a pop star now"
I'm not good, at fitting in
School is tough, what can I say
It's such a shame
Listen to your heart
Love's strange
So real in the dark...
Still haven't found
What I'm looking for
I put on my red shoes
And dance the blues
My brother says don't
You forget about me
So this is what I said to him...
With love, I shy away
What I'd do for an uptown girl
Running up that hill is all I know
So, save a prayer I fade to grey
You keep me hanging on
I'm all stood still
I wait for the day when I'm big in Japan
Then my sister says wouldn't it be good
