Metric - Soft Rock Star Lyrics

Climbed the wall to make the sun rise in time
But the night had already begun
Climbed the wall to make the sun rise in time
But the night had already begun
Now here I am, I am the one

So hang high, soft star
Don't shine before swine

Not a lot of room to move, I swear as my guide
I tried looking up to you, girls
Please correct me but didn't you let the work slide?
Capitalize on a novelty, cheap pink, spotlight

"Choose the highest bidder", was my answer
When they told me I was up for sale
Schoolyard, junior high star bullies have always
Tried to buy the better girls but failed 'til now

Bubblegum ball, Martini
Is nothing like Depanneur red wine
Travel through time
Who were you after you were mine?

"Choose the highest bidder", was my answer
When they told me I was up for sale
Schoolyard, junior high star bullies have always
Tried to buy the better girls but failed 'til now

So hang high, soft rock star
Hang high, soft rock star
Don't shine before swine

"Choose the highest bidder", was my answer
When they told me I was up for sale
Schoolyard, junior high star bullies have always
Tried to buy the better girls, haven't they?

"Choose the highest bidder", was my answer
When they told me I was up for sale
Schoolyard, junior high star bullies have always
Tried to buy the better girls but failed 'til now
