lyrics

I’d have made a killer lawyer
Arguing’s my second language
All I need’s to want it more
Than not at all,
But I can’t change it.

I’d have found a cure for cancer
Workin hard out In a lab
Plug my drive into a field
Where I can make a good impact

If there was anything, and I mean anything
I could do other than this
I’d be listening
Bears have to fish
Fish have to swim
Birds have to fly on their wings
And I have to try
To make beautiful things

I could teach you how to do it
If my passion was for teaching
I could be a CEO
but then you know
I’d be over-reaching

I could run for public office
Charismatic to the bone
If I thought I could make a difference
I’d assume a leader’s tone

Sometimes I wish
I’d be happy as anything
Other than what I am
committed to being
Athlete’s and astronauts
Both share ambition that
Starts when they’re young in their dreams
And I only dreamt of the chance
To make beautiful things
