I say, I say, I say, I say   1, 2, 3, 4 out of 5 ain't bad   And once you're in   It really doesn't feel so crap      You win, you win just a little but you win   That pretty face is telling lies   It's plaster more than skin   But it's good enough, you win      Where did it all go right   You make plans that you don't stick to   If I'm ill then you feel sick too   Ain't it strange?      I say, I say, I say, I say   1, 2, 3, 4 out of 5 ain't bad   And once you're in   It really doesn't feel so crap      Calm down, calm down   Just a tiny bit, calm down      And when the saints go marching in   One saint forgets you with one swing   So please give up and calm down      Did it all go right?   September you don't take notice   October you try to ignore us   November you look so gloomy   December you give in to me   Ain't it strange?      I say, I say, I say, I say   1, 2, 3, 4 out of 5 ain't bad   And once you're in   It really doesn't feel so crap      I say   1, 2, 3, 4 out of 5 ain't bad   And once you're in   It really doesn't feel so crap
