You’re Never Gonna Win
You’re never gonna win. Maybe a few moments you'll think you did but you won't.
You’re never gonna win
not even if you
practice all day,
not even if you
get that nose job,
not even if you
win the lottery or
hit the triactor.
It’s just not gonna happen.
Entropy has us all in her
dirty hands.
There’s a loose nut in
every assembly line.
There’s a self-destruct button
blinking on and off
in everyone’s heart.
Best to not swim upstream.
Learn to love the toast on the floor,
jam side down
cuz
your ship always will be
going back out again
and
you’re never gonna win.
Get used to it.
There ain’t no Oz, Dorthy.
