B-B-Buck!!

"I'm having second thoughts and it tears me apart.
Holdin' on to my breath for dear life, feeling confused yet
still enthusiastic about the sound of music.
Join me please.

"I'm told passion is my specialty but really I'm old-fashioned.

"I'm not the favorite kind of companion for the average person.

"I try to do what I do with love instead of with anger
and sometimes I bite my nails 'cause real life is a cliffhanger.

"The older I get, the more life starts to make sense,
and the less I care."

You're like "a game worth winnin' from the beginnin' of the first inning."

"It's nice to hear the sad songs played on the piano.

"I don't act hard and waste time with irrelevance,
or underestimate" your "intelligence.
I do what I do with skill and sincerity,
I am what I am, not a fraud or a parody.

"The race is over and I won, these are not contradictory facts.
All that's left now is victory laps,
and I have no intention of slowing the pace,
so unless you're a sucka, you won't be showin' your face.
And guess what else, I don't want to shake hands
or make friends or make amends, so don't make plans,
'cause not only not can you ride on my coat tails,
I wouldn't even let ya clean the dirt out of my toenails.
I consider your style to be garden variety,
and you can't go around actin' hard in society.
It's only gonna lead to frustration, more depression,
and vague illusions over a minor key chord progression.
So continue the chase by all means,
but ya might want to think about what it is you're chasin'.
'Cause if your foes is your own tail and ya try to match his wit,
it may be like pickin' up dimes with a catcher's mit."
