| Once upon a time is how it always goes |
| But IЂ™ll make it brief |
| What was started out with such excitement |
| Now IЂ™d gladly end end with relief |
| In what now has become a familiar motif: |
| That nothing is good enough |
| For people like you |
| Who have to have someone take the fall |
| And something to sabotage-- |
| Determined to lose it all |
| Critics at their worst could never criticize |
| The way that you do |
| No, thereЂ™s no one else, I find, |
| To undermine or dash a hope |
| Quite like you |
| And you do it so casually, too |
| Cause nothing is good enough |
| For people like you |
| Who have to have someone take the fall |
| And something to sabotage-- |
| Determined to lose it all |
| Ladies and gentlemen-- |
| HereЂ™s exhibit a |
| DidnЂ™t I try again? |
| And did the effort pay? |
| WouldnЂ™t a smarter man |
| Simply walk away? |
| It doesnЂ™t really help that you can never say |
| What youЂ™re looking for |
| But youЂ™ll know it when you hear it, |
| Know it when you see it walk through the door |
| So you say-- |
| So youЂ™ve said many times before |
| But nothing is good enough |
| For people like you |
| Who have to have someone take the fall |
| And something to sabotage-- |
| Determined to lose it all |
