Olive’s walking to school today then June is coming here
Make a cat with a piece of clay and dress up like a deer
And paint their nails red and green and black and blue
Shine like stars in sun-filled living rooms
Gavin woke up to work today then changed his mind instead
Sold his clubs and his Cabriolet and married his pal Fred
The reception smelled of wine and man perfume
Shine like stars in sun-filled living rooms
Shine like stars
Everybody keeps wondering just what the old man said
Catch a fish and you eat all day and pretty soon you’re dead
You gotta keep on smiling through the doom and gloom
And shine like stars in sun-filled living rooms
Shine like stars
Sun-filled living rooms
