In front of Walker's Dairy Bar
Pulled up in your brother's car
Windows down, it was hot
But it made no difference
Too hot in the station wagon
Fingers up,
out of habit
Where to go, we didn't know
But it made no difference Light me up,
I'm on a rocket
Taking off,
you can call me Stardust We're not coming down now
We're not coming down
On Chantilly by the liquor store Quitting plays the saxophone
No one's there to fill his can But it made no difference
You kept a handle in the glove For anyone that's feeling fun
You never had an empty glass But it made no difference
Light me up,
I'm a bottle rocket Taking off,
you can call me Stardust
We're not coming down now We're not coming down
Light me up,
I'm a bottle rocket Taking off,
you can call me Stardust
We're not coming down now We're not coming down
Where does the band go when the show is over?
Who clears the tables, locks the place up?
And all of that paper from the firecrackers
Does it just wash away once we've had our fun?
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na
Light me up,
I'm your bottle rocket Taking off,
you can call me Stardust
We're not coming down now We're not coming down
