Things I Won't Get

A Pulitzer prize, an Oscar or two,
 Are things I won't get,
 Things I won't get.
 A Bentley or Benz, well don't hold your breath,
 Are things I won't get,
 Things I won't get.
 Affairs with a star, who offers me dope,
 Far in advance,
 Far in advance.
 A college degree, a job with some hope,
 There's just no chance
 There's just no chance.
 But when I see you, lying by my side,
 Looking extra clean,
 I'm in a state where I, I don't mind,
 My thoughts turn obscene...
 String theory, thoughts of Sartre and such,
 Are things I won't get,
 Things I won't get.
 Schoenberg and twelve-tone, and films that are French,
 Are things I won't get,
 Things I won't get.
 A chairless design, by Charles and Ray Eames,
 Are things I won't get,
 Things I won't get.
 But when I see you, lying by my side,
 I understand you well,
 I'm in a state, where I, I don't mind,
 I guess it's just as well...

 The world is so hard, the people so mean,
 Are things I don't get,
 Things I don't get.
 We sit on the floor, and talk about dreams,
 And things we won't get,
 Things we won't get.
 And when I see you, lying by my side,
 Looking extra keen,
 I'm in a state, where I, I don't mind,
 Just you and me and caffeine...
