filthy rotten scoundrel

every day's the same for me

people come and people leave

and every day's a game for me

i'm always losing willingly

i keep telling myself

keep telling myself to be grateful

but that's not good for my health

not good for my health

maybe my expectations let me down and i'm too far off the ground

and i don't know what i've got 'til it's gone

no i don't know what i've got 'til it's gone

when i'm old and lonely i don't want my life to read: he was born and then he died and not much happened in between

maybe my expectations let me down and i'm too far off the ground

and i don't know what i've got 'til it's gone

no i don't know what i've got 'til it's gone

so i'll work my way through outer space and set my feet on the ground

maybe my expectations let me down and i'm too far off the ground

and i don't know what i've got 'til it's gone

no i don't know what i've got 'til it's gone
