I read a book You went to class Things are gonna work out for you Which makes me feel kinda sad Not because I don't love you But because I want what you have Well I guess that I could have it If I changed my thinking habits 'Cause it seems It doesn't always pay to be sad Things really aren't that bad I saw you in your play last night You were really great You're honestly a natural And I really wanna feel that cool Since I've been doing my thing For God knows how long But it never really pays to be sad Things really aren't that bad Nihilism's a fad 'Cause things really aren't that bad Things aren't bad I'm not gonna be sad I've realized that Watching you succeed is what I need I'll be patient Make money to pay rent I'll get my moment One of these days, one of these days I'll get my moment One of these days, one of these days I'll get my moment One of these days, one of these days One of these days, one of these days One of these days, one of these days
