Star [English translation]

In the hair salon in my neighborhood

Where miss Mary washes and styles hair

A girl is watching TV and

dreaming that one day she'll become a star

In the hair salon in my neighborhood

Miss Mary, ah how tired she used to be

But in front of the TV the little girl was dreaming

That one day the lights would be on her

And one morning, at John the grocer's on the corner

She heard about that talent show everyone goes on

She just had to sign up

And perhaps she'd manage to escape from the hair salon

To become a star

Star, star, star

To become a star,

Star, star, star

Star, star, star

So the time came when she had to sing in front of the judges

Her legs were shaking, afraid she might make a mistake

And her little heart was beating fast

But her little voice was palpitating passionately

All of a sudden, looking at her the set

Seemed enchanted by her freshness

With zoom ins on her face the nation was watching

Her tears when she was thanking them

On the next day, the phone was ringing

The morning shows had brought her on without wasting time

They'd tell her ''you're the next star''

And miss Mary was proud watching from the sidelines

And she became a star

Star, star, star

And she became a star

Star, star, star

Star, star, star

Anything seemed possible for her

She'd listen to the stylist attentively

Perhaps she'll do the advert for that light yogurt

Or she'll be the opening act for a famous singer

Now the best are doing her make-up and dressing her

And turned her from a beauty into a stunner

They'd tell her ''My dear, I suggest you dare to

Wear Louboutin heels with a Che Guevera t-shirt''

She remembers those magazines in the hair salon

Now all of them are there and they've come to ask her

If she would do a naked photoshoot

And if she was interested in singing

In Eurovision

Since she's a star

Star, star, star

Since she's a star

Star, star, star

Star, star, star

Now it's been about six months

And that manager hasn't called

The morning shows seem to have forgotten about her

And miss Mary applied for and got a loan

To no avail, she flips through the magazines

There's another gal on the front page

Nobody recognizes her in the street anymore

Except for John the grocer on the corner

In the hair salon in my neighborhood

Where miss Mary washes and styles hair

A girl, who one day for a while

Had become a star, is watching TV

She was a star

Star, star, star

She was a star

Star, star, star

She was a star

Star, star, star

She was a star

Star, star, star

Star, star, star
