Loser of the Year Award Lyrics

Always had the dream

Now I have the action


Broken down disasters smoke filled empty rooms
Spent my time hearing "this is wrong"

And life of eye to eye to head to head
You'll never understand what this means to me


Not for approval, not yours anyway


Arrange by the numbers
Arrange by your casualty
Defined by a submission to a common sense


That never had anything to do with me

I always look back smiling
As friends are made and lost


Never moved by struggle fate or cost


I'd rather stay a loser

And laugh at common sense
As they struggle for mediocrity
Then rely on safety nets and reminisce
