lyrics

cause satisfaction is the brother of complacency,
you'd better work real hard,
to impress your mother.
stay malcontent,
and work towards a goal,
that's way less than magnificent.
if you accomplish it,
people will be happy,
standing ovations and family vacations
for you.

so keep your head down.
and reach for the stars isn't that what you want?

i'm not special i don't think that i am.
and you probably aren't if you,
think that you are.
so just leave me alone.
put your pants on like everyone else,
adn try really hard to not get very far.
sometimes you'll even surprise yourself.
put the penny in the jar and just move on.

you might fizzle out.
you might not feel ok.
watch your hole expand from a perched position,
they say.
and you might get hit by a drunk driver late,
so if you want to accomplish something you might as well,
do it today.
don't fall into the pit of self doubt,
cause i can assure you it's really hard to get out.
