Second best will be my destiny, I never knew How I've been blessed with this gift to mess up everything I do Could've been that ain't my thing, I'd wait and find my way But I've been stuck down on my luck forever and a day So you put me to the test And I'll play this game again, I guess I kick and crawl, still I stumble and fall Behind the rest, second best Might've done, that ain't no fun, you'll wonder what went wrong 'Cause I ain't savoured fortune's favour for I don't know how long Also ran was not my plan, I'd change if I could choose Who'd deal a man such lousy hands? Why am I doomed to lose? So you ask me once again And I'll play the hand I have, but then You kick and crawl 'til I fumble and fall I give up, you win, could've been So you put me to the test And I'll play this game again, I guess I kick and crawl, still I stumble and fall Behind the rest, second best (Best) Oh yes
