Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Twinkle Twinkle little star How unfortunate you are To sit in the ski all night and day While other’s send wishes your way They wish for love, fortune and fame They wish for everyone to know their name They wish to be tall, skinny and smart They wish and believe in you with all their heart But they do not know the feelings that you have And that sometimes you make their wishes go bad The fact that we get to walk around feely Fills the stars heart with jealousy So with a hateful stare it throws our wishes back And with each wish thrown, the star gains a crack And before long the star loses its shine And it plummets to the ground, with beauty divine And before it hit’s the ground it grants one final wish One for a mother, and her young daughter’s happiness The star makes its penance as it strikes the ground Though through its tears it never makes a sound ‘I’m sorry’ the star cries for all the ignored wishes in the past ‘I wish I could go back and fix them’ but it’s fading fast Its wish has been thrown back by another Who doesn’t want to bother As the star continues to throw them back He starts to gain all his cracks So watch for the star in the ski that looks mad And keep your wishes for another that won’t make them bad And remember the saying that is so true Keep it in your heart close to you If you make a wish on a broken star You dreams will not make it very far
