Bokassa – Crocsodile Dundee lyrics

[Verse 1]
No matter what - destined to fail
I'm close - but I never prevail
A little different - never the norm
Suppressed by birth - born to conform

[Verse 2]
Sit still - don't stray from the pack
I've got ambition - heart's what I lack
Never question - always subdue
A little patience - soon it'll be you

[Chorus]
I pretended I was just like you
We all wear masks to make it through
I imagined I was just like them
We all wear masks to the bitter end

[Verse 3]
I don't consider it defeat, don't consider it a loss
This is how I will survive, and financially thrive
Maybe on the way I lost what is valuable to most
In the end small price to pay for the life I live today

[Chorus]
I pretended I was just like you
We all wear masks to make it through
I imagined I was just like them
We all wear masks to the bitter end

I pretended I was just like you
We all wear masks to make it through
I imagined I was just like them
We all wear masks to the bitter end

[Bridge]
Just like rats
Just like rats
Just like rats
Just like rats

Just like rats
This is self-preservation
Just like rats
This is self-preservation
Just like rats
This is self-preservation
Just like rats
This is self-preservation
Just like rats
Just like rats

[Outro]
This time you lose
About time you paid your dues
This time you lose
About time you paid your dues
This time you lose
About time you paid your dues
This time you lose
About time you paid your dues
