A woman I follow on Instagram — Carrie Mallon — poster this graphic a bit ago. Here is the caption:

You are entirely a star child! Today in “thank you internet” I came across the lyrics to ‘All Star’ by Smash Mouth after they’ve been translated to Aramaic and then back to English and they are GLORIOUS.
