The Stars Are Ours - Mayer Hawthorne

Hey
Ho
Hey
Ho!

Sister's schoolwork is ready
I was high as a kite
We're gathered round the kitchen table now
And we're coming back to life.
Rumor spread like a virus
Ross' folks house tonight
We're making plans across the cable now
In the ultraviolet light.

Well we're breakin' all the rules
Cuz they're getting in the way
And we'll never be as young as we are today
And they're claiming I'm a fool,
But I look the other way
They can tell me what to do when I'm old and grey

But now the stars are ours tonight
We'll worry 'bout tomorrow when the sun starts shining bright, then we'll sleep.

In the Chrysler Lebaron
White with black velvet seats
The trunk is shakin' up the neighborhood
As we terrorize the streets.
Allan's head's out the window
Cigarette in his teeth
The neighbors tellin' us to slow it down
Shake their heads in disbelief.

Well we're breakin' all the rules
Cuz they're getting in the way
And we'll never be as young as we are today
And they're claiming I'm a fool,
But I look the other way
They can tell me what to do when I'm old and grey

But now the stars are ours tonight
We'll worry 'bout tomorrow when the sun starts shining bright, then we'll sleep.

Hey
Ho
Hey
Ho!

Champagne toast to the ceiling
Peel the paint off the walls
This one is goin' in the history books
With the Legends of the Fall.
Back in class on Monday
Mad high-fives in the hall
This one is going in the history books
With the Legends of the Fall.

Well we're breakin' all the rules
Cuz they're getting in the way
And we'll never be as young as we are today
And they're claiming I'm a fool,
But I look the other way
They can tell me what to do when I'm old and grey

But now the stars are ours tonight
We'll worry 'bout tomorrow when the sun starts shining bright, then we'll sleep.
