Failed Careers versuri

Versuri Friends in Real Life – Failed Careers lyrics

Didn’t make it as a scholar, momma
Didn’t cut it as a jazz man, poppa
If you could see how far from liberation I remain, my brother, I’d be so ashamed

I didn’t flip the dope like Sammy
Couldn’t hack it with the six gun, Danny
I think you’ve got a heart that’s true and born to die
As for me, I like to be in bed by nine

‘Cause you only live once…
Well, I don’t know about that, but I’ll only get one shot at this one
Whatever I’ve done, I can’t take it back, so I’ll try and keep it up front

Didn’t make it in the High School band
Couldn’t cut it as a song and dance man
They thought I’d be a dish pit prodigy, but I spent my shifts yapping about my philosophy!
The wrong half of a brooding writer
A street sweeper, not a real street fighter
I usеd to hit the road, no rider, roll to the gigs on my Radio Flyеr

You only live once…
Well, I don’t know about that, but I’ll only get one shot at this one
Whatever I’ve done, I can’t take it back, so I’ll try and keep it up front
