| 歌曲 | Hapless Attempt |
| 歌手 | New Bomb Turks |
| 专辑 | Destroy-Oh-Boy! |
| I had a bad idea | |
| I wanted something no one has | |
| Spent a thousand Friday nights | |
| Waiting for a good good time | |
| I saw my life flash before me | |
| And I'm waiting for the punch line | |
| Changed my mind a thousand times | |
| And changed it back again | |
| I'm sick and tired of losing | |
| But I sure don't want to win | |
| No success like failure | |
| And failure will do you in | |
| Got no place to go | |
| Lost my map in the first place | |
| I'll go up and shake your hand | |
| And you can punch me right in my face | |
| It's just a hapless, another hapless attempt | |
| Another bad idea, another dead end | |
| I was born and I lived | |
| In a time of nothing | |
| Where the women wore skirts again | |
| And the men they signed the checks | |
| I tried to get a job | |
| I tried to dress up right | |
| I got myself a tie, man | |
| And I tied it up so tight | |
| But when you can't breathe | |
| All thinking's over | |
| I guess from now on | |
| I'll be digging graves 'til dawn | |
| I'm trying to think of something new | |
| But don't hold your breath for long | |
| Just trying to come up with some shit | |
| To finish this shitty song | |
| It's just a hapless, another hapless attempt | |
| Another bad idea, another dead end | |
| I had a bad idea | |
| I wanted something no one has | |
| Changed my mind a thousand times | |
| And changed it back again | |
| I saw my life flash before me | |
| And I'm waiting for the punch line | |
| Spent a thousand Friday nights | |
| Waiting for a good good time | |
| I'm sick and tired of losing | |
| But I sure don't want to win | |
| No success like failure | |
| And failure will do you in | |
| Got no place to go | |
| Lost my map in the first place | |
| I'll go up and shake your hand | |
| And you can punch me right in my face | |
