Letra de Hapless Attempt

I had a bad idea
I wanted something no one has
Spent a thousand Friday nights
Waiting for a good good time
I saw my life flash before me
And I'm waiting for the punch line
Changed my mind a thousand times
And changed it back again
I'm sick and tired of losing
But I sure don't want to win
No success like failure
And failure will do you in
Got no place to go
Lost my map in the first place
I'll go up and shake your hand
And you can punch me right in my face
It's just a hapless, another hapless attempt
Another bad idea, another dead end
I was born and I lived
In a time of nothing
Where the women wore skirts again
And the men they signed the checks
I tried to get a job
I tried to dress up right
I got myself a tie, man
And I tied it up so tight
But when you can't breathe
All thinking's over
I guess from now on
I'll be digging graves 'til dawn
I'm trying to think of something new
But don't hold your breath for long
Just trying to come up with some shit
To finish this shitty song
It's just a hapless, another hapless attempt
Another bad idea, another dead end
I had a bad idea
I wanted something no one has
Changed my mind a thousand times
And changed it back again
I saw my life flash before me
And I'm waiting for the punch line
Spent a thousand Friday nights
Waiting for a good good time
I'm sick and tired of losing
But I sure don't want to win
No success like failure
And failure will do you in
Got no place to go
Lost my map in the first place
I'll go up and shake your hand
And you can punch me right in my face
It's just a hapless, another hapless attempt
Another bad idea, another dead end
