TFT: Smash Mouth

 Link: [Smash Mouth]

Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world.  For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously fervent rants of rebellion.  Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.



All Star
Smash Mouth
Somebody once told me
The world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool
In the shed
She was looking kind of dumb
With her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an L
On her forehead
Well the years start coming
And they don't stop coming
Feed to the rules
And I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense
Not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart
But your head gets dumb
So much to do
So much to see
So what's wrong with
Taking the back streets
You'll never know
If you don't go
You'll never shine
If you don't glow

Hey now
You're an all star
Get your game on
Go play
Hey now
You're a rock star
Get the show on
Get paid
And all that glitters
Is gold
Only shooting stars
Break the mold

It's a cool place
And they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now
Wait 'til you get older
But the meteor men
Beg to differ
Judging by the hole
In the satellite picture
The ice we skate
Is getting pretty thin
The waters getting warm
So you might as well swim
My world's on fire
How about yours
That's the way I like it
And I'll never get bored

Hey now
You're an all star
Get your game on
Go play
Hey now
You're a rock star
Get the show on
Get paid
And all that glitters
Is gold
Only shooting stars
Break the mold

Hey now
You're an all star
Get your game on
Go play
Hey now
You're a rock star
Get the show on
Get paid
And all that glitters
Is gold
Only shooting stars

Somebody once asked
Could I spare some change for gas
I need to get myself
Away from this place
I said
Yep
What a concept
I could use a little fuel
Myself
And we could
All use a little change
Well the years start coming
And they don't stop coming
Feed to the rules
And I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense
Not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart
But your head gets dumb
So much to do
So much to see
So what's wrong with
Taking the back streets
You'll never know
If you don't go
Go
You'll never shine
If you don't glow

Hey now
You're an all star
Get your game on
Go play
Hey now
You're a rock star
Get the show on
Get paid
And all that glitters
Is gold
Only shooting stars
Break the mold
And all that glitters
Is gold
Only shooting stars
Break the mold


Then The Morning Comes
Smash Mouth
Paint the town
Take a bow
Thank everybody
You're gonna do it again
You are the few
The proud
You are the antibody
Mind soul and Zen
And the world's a stage
And the world's a faze
And the end is near
So push rewind
Just in time
Thank anybody
You're gonna do it again

The way that you walk
It's just the way that you talk
Like it ain't no thing
And every single day is just a fling
Then the morning come

Take your knocks
Shake them off
Duck everybody
You're gonna take them again
You are your foe
Your friend
You are the paparazzi
You are the tragedian
And the world's a craze
And the world's a faze
And the end is near
So push rewind
Just in time
Thank anybody
You're gonna do it again

The way that you walk
It's just the way that you talk
Like it ain't no thing
And every single day is just a fling
And when it comes it moves so slow
Kinda like it's saying I told you so
Looking back before she goes
Tomorrow's gonna hurt

And the world's a stage
And the world's faze
And the end is near
So push rewind
Just in time
Thank anybody
It's just the way that you walk
It's just the way that you talk
Like it ain't no thing
And every single day is just a fling
Then the morning comes

  1. Believe it or not I actually like the first song. I hear it often. The second one I've never heard before. Don't care for it as much but it was an entertaining video

  2. Thanks for stopping by again, my dear Grace!!! Alternative rock is most definitely an acquired taste.

  3. Thanks for stopping by again, my dear Ann!!! Back when I was still on the truck, "All Star" would help pick me up every time I heard it, and I could certainly relate to not being the sharpest tool in the shed.
