Superstar Lyrics - Singles - Josh Joplin Group

Miguel sits at the corner store 

With skin like terra cotta pottery 

Waiting for a bus, a bus 

With a hat like Billy Jack's 

A smile like Freddie Prinz 

He comes and he goes with the dust 

Looking out his window world 

As the desert skies open up and introduce 

The stars that dance in space 

But he falls fast asleep 

With a dream that he keeps 

Underneath his pillow case 

Carry me, whoever you are 

I'm waiting with masses 

For the rites of passage 

And wishing on a superstar 

Stacy adds to her billfold 

And slides down a brass pole 

For free drinks and a bigger tip 

Posing from a good home 

That haunts when she's all alone 

She sheds what she cannot strip 

Carry me, whoever you are 

I'm waiting with masses 

For the rites of passage 

And wishing on a superstar 

Show us the way, show us the way 

'Cause we want to be loved 

And we want to be saved 

And we all want to be okay, and we all want to be okay 

But we don't have the means to pay 

And I don't have the means to pay 

Carry me, whoever you are 

I'm waiting with masses 

For the rites of passage 

And wishing on a superstar 

Miguel sits at the corner store 

Smoking on a cigarette 

He bummed off a punk in gangstahood 

Stacy takes a drag 

And puts her hands on his back 

And they walk like they're Hollywood 

Carry me, whoever you are 

I'm waiting with masses 

For the rites of passage 

And wishing on a superstar
