Once  upon a time is how it always  goes but I'll  make it  brief
What  was started out with such excitement  now I'd gladly end  with relief
 In what  now has become  a familiar  motif
 That nothing  is good  enough for people  like you
 Who have  to have someone  take the fall
 And something  to sabotage determined  to lose it all
Critics  at their worst could never  criticize the way  that you  do
 No, there's no  one else, I find to undermine  or dash a hope  quite like you
 And you do  it so casually, too
 That nothing  is good  enough for people  like you
 Who have  to have someone  take the fall
 And something  to sabotage determined  to lose it all
Ladies  and gentlemen here's  exhibit  A
 Didn't I try again? And did the effort pay?
Wouldn't  a smarter  man simply  walk away?
It  doesn't really help that  you can never say what you're  looking for
 You'll know  it when you hear  it know it when you see it walk  through the door
 So you say  so you've  said many  times before
 That nothing  is good  enough for people  like you
 Who have  to have someone  take the fall
 And something  to sabotage determined  to lose  it all
Nothing  is good  enough
