Verse 1
Life is hard for the traveling magician
A show pony, that is your big ambition

Bits are low, and times are tough
leave for Ponyville and just make enough


So you find, an easy crowd
Time for setup, and think out loud.
As nervous as you are, you find all your strength

your small lies can take you to great lengths

Suddenly, a pegasus mocks you

keep calm Trixie, just keep your cool.
Hecklers won't want to take you down
when you turn that frown of theirs upside down.


Chorus:
Show them that you want your way (even if it kills you)

Make yourself that shooting star (the stars will help and guide you)
The only way to make them pay (the ones that want to stop you)
is to show them you're the star (of this bright and summer day).


Verse 2:
Three days since the ponyville incident

caused by a rush of vanity and arrogance.
Out of a home, and confidence too
sorrow and fear now shake your hooves


But don't fret, your mother said to
a little unicorn, saying no one can stop you

from making that dream, so hard it seem
to get to be one of the greatest ponies.
