Caterpillar crawling up the big phone pole Is there somebody that you want to talk to? You know that pretty soon you'll be able to fly How is this going to affect you? Do you think it might wreck you? Your friends might reject you Say you took it too far You said you want to be want to be want to be want to be Hooked on glossy pictures and drugs I've never seen We'll treat you with advice from a fashion magazine One day she just walked into that magazine I wonder if she'll ever come back And they all said she would crack They said her mind was one track, Said she took it too far You said you want to be want to be want to be want to be Closer to the stars Every time you move your lips Let me give you a few tips Yesterday you were too young Tomorrow you will be too old To regret all the things you've done who're you trying to hustle ? Somebody you wanna show your muscle? Second hand excuses never went too far What's this scene you're making? Your ideas have been taken We'll seek when you awaken alone in someone's car You just stood there shaking, stood there shaking They said you were faking You said you want to be want to be want to be want to be Closer to the stars Closer to the stars
