I spend most of my time thinking of what to say And hopefully it goes my way Stray from the course and I will not make it back I'll invest all of my time in that I've given up on the public matters I may be dumb or even scared It's passed the point of fighting chances I don't even try anymore I play over and over Luck just happened to fall right on my back Just once I'd like to earn the things that I lack I'm not this person who could step up and say "Hey, this is me. I think that I deserve a little extra pay" I hear what everyone says that it's a brand new age And I still dream of the glory days Back when we thought that life was full of mysteries Now we've got all of the facts on these I've given out what the public wanted And changed the way that I wrote a song Now it's all copies of copies And I don't even care anymore I write over and over Luck just happened to fall right on my back Just once I'd like to earn the things that I lack I'm not this person who could come out and say "Hey, this is me. I am professional, and I am what you need" A walking advertisement is all I see That takes away the life and all meaning Go! Join the others in that deep black hole Saying "This is me" Saying "This is me" Luck just happened to fall right on my back Just once I'd like to earn the things that I lack I am this person who could step up and say "Hey! This is me. I am an average guy, committed to my trade"
