Hey, hey, hey, eh eh hey
Let me get straight to it
I've bit off more than I could chew
I've felt the sting and slap of failure, missed my due
Like a hard knife, cutting through a slice
Of ego, of ambition yeah, put me off my mission
I been wandering alleys in a dirty shirt
Takin' this and that 'cause I had so much hurt
I'm not plying you with liquor
For you tongue to get a flicker
I just need to tell my story
If you're drunk I'll get done quicker
Hey, hey, gotta keep the hope up
Gotta keep your eye on the prize
Hey, hey, gotta keep the highs up
I'm an optimist of the most dangerous size
There is more to this life
I must believe there is more to this life
There is more to this life
I must believe there is more to this life
Let me get straight to it
There's more explaining I could do
But I am here just for diversion
As are you
Don't mean to jump the gun
But we could have some fun
There's little sense in dishing
Since I noticed you're not listenin'
I'm feelin' fairly lucky
I've been surfin' shadows of success in my dreams
And yes I know my guard's down
But I don't mind if you see
Hey, hey, gotta keep the hope up
Gotta keep your eye on the prize
Hey, hey, gotta keep the highs up
I'm an optimist of the most dangerous size
There is more to this life
I must believe there is more to this life
There is more to this life
I must believe there is more to this life
This life, this life, this life
This life, this life, this life
This life, this life, this life
This life, this life, this life
This life, this life, this life
Hey, eh eh hey
Hey, eh eh hey
There is more to this life
I must believe there is more to this life
There is more to this life
I must believe there is more to this life
