Creeper Lagoon › Lyrics › Chance of a Lifetime

First of all, I'm not as down as you
And there's a better way to walk around these days
I don't believe in cool
I went to summer school

There was a man unknown
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

It 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
