Why was I born today? Life is useless like Ecclesiastes say I didn't get a chance But opportunity's is in my hands
I stand with my guitar I need a mirror, then I'm a star I'm so sick of dud TV Next time you switch on you might see me
I've been there and gone there I lived there and bummed there I spinned there, I gave there I drank there and I slaved there
I've had enough of the way things have been done Every man on a razor's edge Someone has used us to shoot with the same gun We were killing each other by driving a wedge
My life's a mess I wait for you to pass I stand here at the bar, I hold an empty glass

My life's a mess I wait for you to pass I stand here at the bar, I hold an empty glass
