I'm a small time player in a big time game<br />
And that's really all I'm worth.<br />
I think I've trod these boards before,<br />
Is it more than I deserve?<br />
I must have been a killer in a former life,<br />
It makes no sense this punishment you see.<br />
It used to be magnificent<br />
To be constantly on call.<br />
Now I'm nearly twice as glad<br />
Just to be alive at all,<br />
The real people in these towns,<br />
Are kicking off their shoes tonight without me...<br />
Oh you are awful but I love it,<br />
You are awful but no, no, no, you're the best!<br />
And I'm the worst I've ever been,<br />
And I'm waiting for my time to leave you far behind.<br />
I never cared for anything,<br />
I imagine people guessed.<br />
They wanted me to play along,<br />
It's not something I'd suggest.<br />
It doesn't really matter what you achieve,<br />
As long as you enjoy yourself, apparently.<br />
Oh you are awful but I love it,<br />
You are awful but no, no, no, you're the best!<br />
And I'm the worst I've ever been,<br />
And I'm waiting for my time to leave you far behind.<br />
I thought I'd save my life,<br />
Save it up till I could find it useful.<br />
I thought I'd bide my time,<br />
Save it up till I could find it useful.<br />
Just another day, just another week, just another month<br />
And I'm already halfway out to lunch!
