lyrics & music by arno steffen
We young stars
Now that we've fallen out of the circle
We begin to shine, to shine
Brighter and clearer
Shining for the others
Who are just young and wild
You can't catch me
You won't get me nowhere
Leave me whatever I am
Don't try to make me a different man
You can't catch me
No you can't seduce me
To make me young and rich
And change my images
When I worked right aligned As Mr. Normal a formal Almost stereotyped
But I made up my mind
And I decided to leave it
We young stars
Now that we've fallen into social events
We begin to shine, to shine
Brighter and clearer
Shining for the others
Who wanna be just as young and wild
You can't catch me
You won't get me nowhere
To make me young and rich
And change my beautiful images
I won't be wasting my time
As Mr. Normal, poor man
Always tranquilized
With snapshots of a star
Over and Over
You can't catch me...
