|
Once upon a time |
|
Is how it always goes |
|
But I'll make it brief |
|
What was started out |
|
With such excitement |
|
Now I gladly end with relief |
|
In what now has become a familiar motif |
|
That nothing is good enough |
|
For people like you |
|
Who have to have someone take the fall |
|
And something to sabotage |
|
Determined to lose it all |
|
Critics at their worst |
|
Could never criticize |
|
The way that you do |
|
No, there's no one else I find |
|
To undermine or dash a hope |
|
Quite like you |
|
And you do it so casually, too |
|
'Cause nothing is good enough |
|
For people like you |
|
Who have to have someone take the fall |
|
And something to sabotage |
|
Determined to lose it all |
|
Ladies and gentlemen, |
|
Here's exhibit A |
|
Didn't I try again |
|
And did the effort pay? |
|
Wouldn't a smarter man |
|
Simply walk away? |
|
It doesn't really help |
|
That you can never say |
|
What you're looking for |
|
But you'll know it when you hear it |
|
Know it when you see it |
|
Walk through the door |
|
So you say, so you've said |
|
Many times before |
|
But nothing is good enough |
|
For people like you |
|
Who have to have someone take the fall |
|
And something to sabotage |
|
Determined to lose it all |
|
Nothing is good enough... |
