LYRICS
A star that bright
Had never been seen at night
Let alone, they say
During the day
As if figurative
… or literal
Let it roll
Encompass all
Total
The brightest star
By far
The brightest star
And forever more
The brightest tail
The brightest tale
Shinning down
To the ground
Shine on
Human
Given from heaven
To the Earth
The birth
You are
The brightest star

ABOUT THE
The Star of Bethlehem, or Christmas Star, appears only in the nativity story of the Gospel of Matthew, where “wise men from the East” are inspired by the star to travel to Jerusalem. “For we have seen His star in the East [or at its rising] and have come to worship Him.”

There they meet King Herod of Judea, and tell him they are heading to Bethlehem to pay homage to the newborn king of the Jews. Herod calls his scribes and priests who confirm to him that a verse from the Book of Micah interpreted as a prophecy, states that the Jewish Messiah would be born in Bethlehem to the south of Jerusalem. Secretly intending to find and kill the Messiah in order to preserve his own kingship, Herod invites the wise men to return to him on their way home.

LYRICS
Rock ‘n’ Roll stars
Shame it couldn’t last
Rock ‘n’ Roll stars
Relegated to the past

So you wanna be a Rock ‘n’ Roll star
Grab your guitar… come as you are
With a passion to play all day
We’ll redefine how the stars shine

Better fadin’way
Than to burnin’ out today
Stars of modern day
Glowing light years away

Make ’em dance
And make ’em sing
Tak a chance
See what music will bring

As it’s told
Turn to cold
The winter did

Never too old
Learn to fold
Back into the kid
The child you once were

The rest of your life
Just a blur

Back to Mother Nature
Your wife

Under the star
The child you are
Back from afar
The child you are

The trumpets blare
Now you’re aware
Of the child you are

The bells ring true
Of the child in you
Of the child you are
