Everybody needs love 
And adventure
Everybody needs 
Cash to spend
Everybody needs love 
And affection
Everybody needs two 
Or three friends

In this world 
Of changes
Nothing ever 
Stays the same
Got no options 
Got no choices
But to play the game

I got to catch 
My shining star
So fresh, so clean
That't what we are
Get my grind on 
And then go far
Hoochie coochie ah, ha
Hoochie coochie ha

These are the things
These are the things
The things that dreams 
are made of 
(Oh, oh, oh)

I ain't ever been that girl
The girl 
They call Jane plain
See I got where I am today
Because I use my brain 
Now what's my name? 

I got to catch 
My shining star
So fresh, so clean 
That't what we are
Get my grind on 
And then go far
Hoochie coochie ah, ha
Hoochie coochie ha

These are the things 
These are the things
The things that dreams 
Are made of 
(Oh, oh, oh)

People always 
Saying how it used to be
But ain't 
A damn thing changed 
So it's news to me
All that talking seems 
To sound 
Like an excuse to me
So why you trying 
To make me something 
I refuse to be?
