for those who do 'better' than I.


Fame and glory? I'll take my meatloaf

Hey you who have sold your soul to play
Hey you who forgot just why you pray
I wish you good luck

Yes you who worry of your next martini
I wish you good luck
And curse you in the back of my mind

All those of you who will beat the rest
And those who love it that they're the best
I wish you good luck

But me I try and I might succeed
I play and I love and I hope you're freed
From the ambition that drives you off
The edge..

Indeed! Go for the meatloaf. Great structure and meter here.
