It was not to long ago He bought tickets to a show The curtains were drawn, the lights were on, the story he didn't know She was a foreign film about Love, mistrust and doubt He tried to change and rearrange and now he wanted out (Chorus:) (He said) She said he would never make it Shot down he could never take it He said that she never believes him at all It's the story of my life She said he would never make it Shot down he could never take it He said that she never believes him at all It's the story of my life The plot had many holes And the jokes were getting old He tried to leave and for some reason he came back wanting more He wasted so much time He could never get it right He tried to change and rearrange and now he wanted out (Chorus:) (He said) She said he would never make it Shot down he could never take it He said that she never believes him at all It's the story of my life She said he would never make it Shot down he could never take it He said that she never believes him at all It's the story of my life I was never good enough I could never be what you wanted I'm gonna die trying So just kill me now I was never good enough I was never gonna make it I'm gonna die trying So just kill me now (Chorus:) (He said) She said he would never make it Shot down he could never take it He said that she never believes him at all It's the story of my life She said he would never make it Shot down he could never take it He said that she never believes him at all It's the story of my life Shot down he could never take it She said he would never make it (X2)
