Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Somebody wishing on a shooting star
Shooting stars streaming 'cross the sky
You know it's just a meteorite
[Verse 2]
People throwing pennies in a wishing well
Wishing well is gonna run dry
But I ain't gonna leave you tonight
[Verse 3]
Everybody talkin' about changing the world
World ain't ever gonna change
But you could always change it for me
[Verse 4]
I'll shuck all the oysters and you can keep the pearl
I do my shuckin' and my jivin' for free
Free, like walking down the beach at night
[Verse 5]
Throw a bunch of lines out to the way you want
Till you get it right
Sometimes you don't
Get it right
Sometimes you won't
Get it right
But when you do
It's outta sght
[Verse 6]
Sometimes you do
Get it right
