Success

By Aneirin Menelaos


~ Tell me what's the matter with your success ladder ~
~ You never end up on top ~
~ Fixated on a feeling; high up as the ceiling ~
~ When will it ever stop? ~

~ Well it's only money; It ain't like honey ~
~ Pure as mother nature intends ~
~ It's mostly real dirty and about every thirty days ~
~ It goes away again ~

~ Well success ain't about being better than everyone else ~
~ It's about being better than yourself ~
~ Well success ain't about being better than everyone else ~
~ It's about being better than yourself ~

~ You can play in front of Kings and Queens ~
~ Write plays with all the best scenes ~
~ You can be famous with titles'n honors galore ~
~ All the while being a dreadful boor ~

~ For all your talent, you can drink like a fish ~
~ Lose sight of your first 'n only wish ~
~ Tell me what's the matter with your success ladder ~
~ When your head is in the clouds, getting fatter ~

~ Well success ain't about being better than everyone else ~
~ It's about being better than yourself ~
~ Well success ain't about being better than everyone else ~
~ It's about being better than yourself ~

~ Tell me what's the matter with your success ladder ~
~ You never end up on top ~
~ Fixated on a feeling; high up as the ceiling ~
~ When will it ever stop? ~

~ Well it's only money; It ain't like honey ~
~ Pure as mother nature intends ~
~ It's mostly real dirty and about every thirty days ~
~ It goes away again ~

~ Well success ain't about being better than everyone else ~
~ It's about being better than yourself ~
~ Well success ain't about being better than everyone else ~
~ It's about being better than yourself ~
~ It's about being better than yourself ~
~ It's about being better than yourself ~
