I will never taste sweet victory
I don't want to leave the rest behind
I don't want inscription on a plaque
Never first or second place
I won't ever run your rat race
I will always be lower than you
I won't be your competition, lowest
Totem pole possition is where I'd rather
Stay than be like you.
I don't feel the animal instinct
I am not on the top of the food chain
The only battle I will fiercely fight
Is one that hibernates inside my head
Be the best, climb the ladder
Do it better, higher, faster
I refuse to participate
If I go up it will be slow
Im bringing everyone I know
Stopping on the sixth or seventh rung
On a pedestal, isn't the view great
You better watch your step, cause it's nasty fall
When there's no one to catch you when you call.
I will never feel the ribbon break I will never taste sweet victory I don't want to leave the rest behind I don't want inscription on a plaque Never first or second place I won't ever run your rat race I will always be lower than you I won't be your competition, lowest Totem pole possition is where I'd rather Stay than be like you. I don't feel the animal instinct I am not on the top of the food chain The only battle I will fiercely fight Is one that hibernates inside my head Be the best, climb the ladder Do it better, higher, faster I refuse to participate If I go up it will be slow Im bringing everyone I know Stopping on the sixth or seventh rung On a pedestal, isn't the view great You better watch your step, cause it's nasty fall When there's no one to catch you when you call.
