Lyrics
Rose: Everybody is a star
who could reign and chase the dust away
Freddie: Everybody wants to shine
who will come out on a cloudy day?
Larry: Tis the sun that loves you round
when the system tries to bring you down
Sly: Ever had to shine at night?
You don't need darkness to do what you think is right
All: Scat chorus
Rose: Everybody is a star
I can feel it when you shine on me
Freddie: I love you for who you are
Not the one you feel you need to be
Larry: Ever catch a falling star
Ain't no stopping 'til it's on the ground
Sly: Everybody is a star
One big circle goin round and round
All: Scat chorus
Sly: Shine, shine, shine, shine
who could reign and chase the dust away
Freddie: Everybody wants to shine
who will come out on a cloudy day?
Larry: Tis the sun that loves you round
when the system tries to bring you down
Sly: Ever had to shine at night?
You don't need darkness to do what you think is right
All: Scat chorus
Rose: Everybody is a star
I can feel it when you shine on me
Freddie: I love you for who you are
Not the one you feel you need to be
Larry: Ever catch a falling star
Ain't no stopping 'til it's on the ground
Sly: Everybody is a star
One big circle goin round and round
All: Scat chorus
Sly: Shine, shine, shine, shine
