Lyrics

Run of the mill, never been a stunner but City life, it really did a number on you Turned you from a runner into a fighting machine Running your mouth like you were a born sinner Running out of cash or an appetite for dinner Getting real skinny but you don't look like a quitter to me In a quiet hometown where the birds are always chirping The Friday night lights bright like it was hurting Spotlighting directly at the person who You never thought you'd be In a cookie cutter house on the cul-de-sac off Maple A man sits flipping through bills stacked on the table Daddy's wallet's getting more and more unstable But go on, get that college degree You're gonna show 'em all You're gonna be big You're gonna be a star now baby Can't wait to show you off You're the next big thing And everybody loves you honey They'll spit you out Once they're done chewing on you Take it all in now, enjoy it while it lasts 'Til you find out all your dreams are made of glass In a Chinatown studio running out of money Met the brown-haired tomcats, indie skater dummies And the art school airhead Steven Spielberg junkies too On a crosstown bus with the rainy day commuters Rehearsing lines to a blank screen computer And clearing your daydream mind of the producer saying "You're perfect for the role" You're gonna show 'em all You're gonna show 'em all You're gonna be big You're gonna be a star now baby Can't wait to show you off You're the next big thing And everybody loves you honey They'll spit you out Once they're done chewing on you Take it all in now, enjoy it while it lasts 'Til you find out all your dreams are made of glass
