Here's a toast to the loser
The one who bought in too soon
Reaching for foreign promised stars
Crash landed on the moon
Standing distant in a puff of dust
Floating in his own head
Got up to fight another day
Some say he should have stayed in bed

Raise a drink to the loser
Sipping on bitter champagne
Room enough for all in a party of one
Expecting sun, getting rain
Wisdom on how to topple mountains
Only because he's fallen too many times
Raise a glass to the loser
Who is not if he strives to try
