Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You don't know how you took it
You just know what you got
Oh, Lordy, you've been stealin' from the thieves
And you got caught
In the headlights
Of a stretch car
You're a star
[Verse 2]
Dressin' like your sister
Livin' like a tart
They don't know what you're doin'
Babe, it must be art
You're a headache
In a suitcase
You're a star
[Chorus]
Oh, no, don't be shy
You don't have to go blind
Hold me
Thrill me
Kiss me
Kill me
[Verse 3]
You don't know how you got here
You just know you want out
Believin' in yourself almost
As much as you doubt
You're a big smash
You wear it like a rash
Star
[Chorus]
Oh, no, don't be shy
It takes a crowd to cry
Hold me
Thrill me
Kiss me
Kill me, oh
[Bridge]
Hey
Oh, oh
[Verse 4]
They want you to be Jesus
They'll go down on one knee
But they'll want their money back
If you're alive at thirty-three
And you're turnin' tricks
With your crucifix
You're a star
Ooh, child
[Chorus]
Of course, you're not shy
You don't have to deny love
Hold me
Thrill me
Kiss me
Kill me
Written by: Adam Clayton, Bono, Larry Mullen Jr., The Edge
