focus, harum scarum,

...Better than i do. You know your insides true...

*sung over solo*

so come on disover that this

is star slight, come on discover

that this is star slight

*Verse* *Verse*

He spits on your tip-toes, braggin', Sailing all alone, Nowhere is

his braggin folklore, so come on, Star slight, Nowhere is home,

discover, discover, discover, that Inside of my mind..

this is star slight

*Chorus* *Chorus*

...Better than I do You know your insides true...

...Better than I do You know your insides true...
