Ben Lee lyrics Career Choice lyrics When I was a kid I was best at whatever I did When I was a kid I was smart, at the top of the class When I was a lad I was sure I had the world in my hands I was my own teacher I had my own plan I could have been an athlete could have trained all the time Been just like the others could have left them behind But I was too lazy I could not see ahead All I thought of was music that was filling my head I could have been a painter painting life in a rush All I saw in a day on canvas with my brush But I was just painting my life in a song Getting all the chords right getting all the words wrong I could have been a writer with a back catalogue Full of stories of crimes, sex and beer, girls and drugs But instead I was writing my first song so bad On the cheapest guitar that the music store had 'Cos instead I strummed on guitars Instead I wasted my time And I strummed on guitars I could have been a lawyer defending some guy With a paycheck so big for my heart paid to lie But instead I was keeping the truth to myself In the records I placed one by one on my shelf I could have been a champion, man of the year Wave to the crowd as they scream and cheer But here I am playing to people sat down Nursing their beers while I play the clown And instead I strummed on guitars Instead I wasted my time And I strummed on guitars I could have been a racing car driver speed mad Seeking the thrills that my youth never had But instead I was busy enjoying my age With teen punk rock anthems and hearts paid to rage I could have been a scientist, doctor or man With a stethoscope diagnosing ladies' old hands But instead I built fret-callous fingertip scars On my ten year old hands meant for toy ships and cars And instead I strummed on guitars Instead I wasted my time Strummed on guitars I could have been so much But I wasted my time on useless guitars I could have been so much But I'm not And I'm glad And I'm glad 'Cos when I was a kid I was best at whatever I did Other Ben Lee lyrics: Away With The Pixies lyrics Bolt lyrics Don't Leave lyrics Ductile lyrics Frigid lyrics Green Hearts lyrics How Can That Be? lyrics I'm With The Star lyrics Love Song lyrics My Guitar lyrics Pathetic lyrics Pop Queen lyrics Side View lyrics Song 4 You lyrics Sprawl lyrics Stumbling Block lyrics The Loft lyrics Trying To Sneeze lyrics 2 Sisters lyrics 8 Years Old lyrics A Month Today lyrics Daisy lyrics Deep Talk In The Shallow End lyrics Grammercy Park Hotel lyrics Household Name lyrics How To Survive A Broken Heart lyrics Ketchum lyrics Long Train Ride lyrics My Drifting Nature lyrics New Song lyrics 10 Ft Tall lyrics Birthday Song lyrics Burn To Shine lyrics Cigarettes Will Kill You lyrics I Am A Sunflower lyrics Nighttime lyrics Nothing Much Happens lyrics Sandpaperback lyrics Ship My Body Home lyrics The Finger And The Moon lyrics Tornados lyrics |
