An Idiot Like Me

Bland Like a plate of frozen peas for dinner Work Everyday until you die just trying to be above that person next to you Holidays Every year to that same villa in Spain Car Volvo Good brakes Safety No.1 I sigh in boredom of it all The sight in which we see life is a contrast between us all And that channel of tuning just isn't for me Say the odd stupid thing and regret it for days or years Date that person who scares you blind and brings you to tears Make the decision that is stupid and plainly wrong But that's how I roll man, to a different song I've been a prat at the best of times but that's what makes it fun Soaking up the rays with no cream in the summer sun Always a risk taker living life on the edge Hey, that's the way I live, a self committed pledge People look at me and wonder why, I look back and tell them well at least I tried As this is a life to live so spread your wings and not sit in the tree Sometimes we have to make mistakes to prove whats right, hence The world will always need, An Idiot Like Me JJB
