 You really think that you’re bigger than this
 To the tune of ten thousand lisps
 Who would have thought we’d represent
 When I can’t take a compliment?
 Overexposure is the key
 And any focus on me
 Is appreciated
 As it should be
 No wonder  now
 I finally found
 The right formula look for
 You taught  me how
 I play  the fool
 Every mistake  that I make
 I couldn’t have made  without you
 What’s said  is done
 And plain  to see
 You take it all too seriously
 (Repeat Intro but only twice)
 What better way to make an honest mistake
 Than a televised hand of fate
 When the world’s closing in on you
 A decision would be overdue
 Now nothing left is out of hand
 A stronger jaded man stands
 If the world is ending
 Then we toast to it
 I’m stronger  now
 But not  without
 The right formula look for
 You taught  me how
 I play  the fool
 Every mistake  that I make
 I couldn’t have made  without you
 What’s said  is done
 And plain  to see
 Here’s all you get from me
 Here’s  all you get from me
 Organ: (hold)-A(hold)-E(hold)-Gm(hold)
 I’m down for  whatever
 What’s there left to  wait for?
 I’m down for  whatever
 What’s there left to  wait for?
 wait for  I wait
 (Repeat Chorus 2)
