lyrics

BARGAIN BIN OF HISTORY

A day late and twenty short, just the kind of thing
You don’t give a second thought
You’ve heard it once, you’ve seen it all
And knowing us we were headed for a fall
Kinda average, lacking spark
Just the sort of thing that’s always short of the mark
We’ll be in cheap boxes after E
Taking our place in the bargain bin of history

We had some chances, blew ‘em all
Hit the ground running but it ended in a crawl
Of all the things, we have seen
We’d probably trade ‘em for a hill of magic beans
We hate to pause, and recollect
Do us a favour what the hell did you expect?
You’ll find three, under counters before G
Taking our place in the bargain bin of history

If it’s not the beat, is it humility?
If it’s not the talent, is it lack of ability?
Bad timing, bad luck
Or is it just the fact that we often simply suck?
When we’re older, looking back
Hope we don’t get another panic attack
Shit, there’s more copies under R, I and P
Taking our place in the bargain bin of history
