"The Star Song" by Bowling For Soup

You got your tongue pierced once
and you say you got another
that you can't show anyone unless it's under covers
But you're running around showing everyone your new tattoo
You got an A in class and you hope no one would notice
You're the smartest kid in school and it makes you self conscious
And your loser boyfriend's smoking out in the boy's room
I wish someone would tell you

you're a star the way you are
You know you're not fooling anyone, no
You got the eyes of an angel
Don't try to change, yeah
Everybody's got their scars
no matter what they tell you you're beautiful the way you are

And your mama's so happy you became a cheerleader
Homecoming queen just like your older sister
'til you died your hair pink and they said what were you drinkin
And it never did sink in
it don't matter what they think

you're a star the way you are
You know you're not fooling anyone, no
You got the eyes of an angel
Don't try to change, yeah
Everybody's got their scars
nevermind how ugly they are
no matter what they tell you you're beautiful the way you are

all the way you are
all the way you are
all the way you are

you're a star the way you are
You know you're not fooling anyone, no
You got the eyes of an angel
Don't try to change, yeah
Everybody's got their scars
no matter what they tell you you're beautiful the way you are

you're a star the way you are
You know you're not fooling anyone, no
You got the eyes of an angel
Don't try to change, yeah
Everybody's got their scars
nevermind how ugly they are
no matter what they tell you you're beautiful the way you are

you're a star the way you are
You know you're not fooling anyone, no
You got the eyes of an angel
no matter what they tell you you're beautiful the way you are
no matter what they tell you you're beautiful the way you are
no matter what they tell you you're beautiful the way you are

這是我最喜歡的龐克搖滾樂團,
這首歌則是他們出版的唱片中So Far我最喜歡的一首歌,
雖然歌詞還是一樣的放蕩不羈、不加修飾,
旋律也是一樣的輕快中帶著震撼,
但不知怎麼的,非常喜歡這首歌的意境。

「不管人家怎麼說, 你的樣子就是美麗的」
這是我很期待有人跟我說的話,
however, never ever.
但聽到這樣的歌詞,心中還是微微一震,
總覺得,每個人都應該擁有這樣的讚許。

雖然曲風是那樣青春校園的狂放,
那種嘶吼大喊的放縱,
但是,卻總有那麼一兩句話,
像鐘聲一般,深深敲進心坎裡。

開心的時候高聲附和,不開心的時候放聲狂叫,
這就是BFS的魅力,就是喜歡這種,
機車、無厘頭但是,卻又張力十足的旋律。

想想,從自己在美國讀書時就非常喜歡BFS,
曾經,自己也寫過關於BFS的文章,
回頭,看著他們多年前他們以詭異的團名,
第一次出專輯就獲得注意入圍葛萊美獎到現在,
天壓,我也算是個老歌迷了呢,
從完全聽不懂他們的高聲叫鬧,
到每一首歌都朗朗上口,
有時還真是佩服自己這種耐心與毅力,
如何忍受一再重複呢?

就是能夠,就是可以,
不因為別的,就是因為喜歡!

聽說,他們又出了新的專輯了
"High School Never End"
聽來又是另一曲機車好歌,
又是另一次的期待......
