you can't stop the music

and so norman decides to stop living

out his fantasy of being a rock star and

accept reality. this is the end for

norman but not for us because there

will always be someone ready to take

his place - after all

euerybody's a

star!

you can't stop the music

let's all raise a glass

to the rock stars of the past

those that made it

those that faded

those that never even made the grade

those that we thought would never last. singers come and go

and stars fade away. they vanish in the haze

and they're never seen again

but the music just keeps playing on. they can't stop the music

they can't stop the music

they can't stop the music playing on. i've been half a million places

i've seen half a million people who stare

i've been a star and down and out

i've been put on

sat on

punched and spat on

they've called me a faggot

a spiv and a fake

they can knock me down and tread on my face

they can't stop the music playing on. let's all raise a glass

to the rock stars of the past

those that made it

those that faded

those that never even made the grade

those that we thought would never last. singers come and go

and stars fade away. they vanish in the haze

and they're never seen again

but they can't stop the music playing on.
