First of all   I'm not as down as you   And there is a better way   To walk around these days   I don't believe in cool   I went to summer school   There was a man unkown   Stripped himself down to the bone   And he said   "Hey, give me nothing, I'm from nowhere   And you don't know my name"   He doesn't exist   Guess I just missed   Chance of a lifetime   Romance and white wine   Easy living   A new beginning      Blind as wood   And there's not a bone in my body that's good   I watch the tanks roll by   Disguising themselves as the ambulance   Who will race to the show   Waving flowers and caskets, oh no   It's just another win for hope and a heart made of tin   If I were alive I would slow dance in the ghetto   And sleep beneath the street   Doesn't exist   Guess I just missed   Chance of a lifetime   Christmas and sweet pine   Easy living   A new beginning      Left all alone   Watching breakups and afternoon drama   I must have lost my mind   She was trapped on the bus   With a kiss in her hand   And when the screams died down   Her lips were on fire   Spitting magic around   There was one more mile   It was long it was long   I would float on the thermals of laughter   High where I belong   It doesn't exist   Guess I just missed   Chance of a lifetime   Lemonade and sunshine   Easy living   It's just beginning
