Another year, another year And here I am, still sitting here It's a wonderful place for a boy to be Even me My generation was pacified Taught self-esteem and filled with pride Ergo egos. Away we go Egos weee! I believed it for a long, long time though they told it to us all But, maybe I'm not meant to do anything remarkable after all An enrichment program, a gifted class I didn't have to do very much to pass Oh, what could I be if I applied myself? We'll never know 'Cause I give up almost instantly If something doesn't come to me easily If I'm entitled to success, well, I must be great And I can wait I believed it for a long, long time but I got this wake-up call But, maybe I'm not meant to do anything remarkable after all I'm starting to recognize I don't need a bigger life I'm starting to recognize I don't need a bigger life I used to feel nothing but guilt When I took a look at the life I built Surely I was meant for something more Something great Lately, I feel something more like peace Have I given up or have I been released? Maybe this drive to improve ourselves Might be a mistake. (We all make.) I believed it for a long, long time but I was headed for a wall But, maybe I'm not meant to do anything remarkable after all I believed it for a long, long time though they told it to us all But, maybe I'm not meant to do anything remarkable after all
