Mirror Star

                                  He was a lonely boy, no good at sports

He couldn't run, his legs were short

He walked the streets inside his head

And spent a lot of time in bed



He practiced on his way to school

His friends all said, you're off the wall

He played a tight elastic band

His mic was just his empty hand



Mirror, mirror, mirror star

He posed in front of every car

They all called him crazy kid

He ran up to his room and hid



He greased his hair with Vaseline

And practiced looking really mean

He saw a face that's going far

He posed right there with his guitar



Head's in the clouds on school reports

He's always lost in other thoughts

Made no difference, shut them out

He'd be a star someday, no doubt



(CHORUS)



Mirror, mirror on the wall

You never treat him like a fool

Here in his room, he is the king

The wild applause is deafening



You see his face on every wall

From Camden Town to Liverpool

He lays a groupie when he's down

And rents the best hotel in town



The kids hang round to see his face

And wish that they were in his place

Reflections paid, the mirror made

'Cause posing's helped him make the grade



(CHORUS)



Mirror, mirror on the wall

You never treat him like a fool

Here in his room, he is the king

The wild applause is deafening



Mirror, mirror, mirror star

Mirror star

Mirror, mirror star

Mirror, mirror, mirror star

Mirror, mirror star

Mirror, mirror
