i was just about to think that all the benefits in life
are there simply if you strife hard enough
yet it seems that it’s no sin to sack in and to grin in
grin in their face

i was just about to gatecrash straight into your heart
but one moment i was inattentive and in the next one
i was inoffensive and alone
my dream my dream was gone

i was just about to fill this post
made to measure made to measure just for me
one minute meditation was too much consideration
and i and i was out

i was just about to score this goal
that all the world would envy me for
when i heard him breathe behind me
this stinking thief came and kicked me

everything’s permitted behind the referee’s eyes
has a crime been committed
if it’s hidden from sight
everything’s permitted behind the referee’s eyes
has a crime been committed
if it’s hidden from sight
i don’t know but i feel it’s not fine as it is
but it’s real oh so real
