lyrics

'good guys never give up' said my best friend's dad on a long hard trip
but this road is long and never ends
i never really snap out of it

maybe i'm not good enough
to survive this endless nightmare
life is a mad mad game we play
but god won't play fair

rich town ladies can change their minds
but us poor folks can't
i guess that's why we're stuck in the middle
tryna come up with a way to stand

up out of the swimming pool
i've discovered myself in
there's lots of bodies at the bottom
they never learned how to swim
