0:26You look just like a star maker
0:30That is not like a star
0:34And you look good on paper
0:38That is the cruelest part
0:50So look alive, it's much cheaper
0:54The dead have expensive taste
0:58The lookalikes found their way here
1:02It's you they want to replace
1:05Yeah, there's room at the top
1:07Pretty cheap for the view
1:09But the vertical drop put the skyline askew
1:13Made me trip on a step, then I flew for awhile
1:18Falling down the stairs of your smile
1:22Falling down the stairs of your smile
1:35You look just like a star maker
1:40That is not like a star
1:43And they look good on paper
1:48Good design takes you far
1:51Too many dress ups, not enough child's play
1:55Too many stopped clocks, not enough time saved
1:59Too many soapboxes, not enough violins
2:03Too many shipwrecks, not enough sirens
2:06Yeah, there's room at the top
2:08Pretty cheap for the view
2:11But the vertical drop made the skyline askew
2:15Made me trip on a step, wasn't careful enough
2:20Falling down the stairs of your love
2:24Falling down the stairs of your love
2:28Now, now
2:29You got what you want, be full
2:36Now, now
2:37You got what you want, be full
2:44Yeah, there's room at the top
2:45Pretty cheap for the view
2:47But the vertical drop made the skyline askew
2:51Made me trip on a step, then I flew for awhile
2:56Falling down the stairs of your smile
3:01Falling down the stairs of your smile
3:05Falling down the stairs of your love
3:09Falling down the stairs of your love
3:13Now, now
3:14You got what you want, be full
3:21Now, now
3:22You got what you want, be full
3:29Now, now
3:30You got what you want, be full
3:37Now, now
3:39You got what you want, be full
