Somebody needs to set you down and tell you how things is
You’re living on the dark side of “what if”
Yer always talkin’, talkin’, ready for a fall
You got your reasons but you don’t believe ’em at all
Yer acting like waitin’ on the sympathy vote
well tomorrow’s Super Tuesday
and the people on the news say that you’re sagging in the polls
That’s how it goes

Destiny’s in her evening gown
You’re always running late
You tell her she looks wonderful but she’ll just have to wait
and wait just like you waited when you waited for the call
well now you’re not so certain as you stand behind the curtain
with yer face against the wall
your feet are cold

This is it – the road to nowhere
This is it – all we understand
All we had to give has fallen from our hands

Sometimes you have to beg
Sometimes you get to choose
Some people always win
Somebody had to lose and it had to be you

Always something to bring you down
It’s never running late
it’s coming down from the heavens in some mysterious way
and you get so excited hearing promises made
well now they’re past the deadline
hang yer dreams out on the clothesline ‘fore the colors start to fade
you had it made

This is is -the road to nowhere
This is it – all we waited for
This is it – all we understand
All you had to give is no longer in demand

Tomorrow’s Super Tuesday
and the people on the news say yer sagging in the polls
that’s how it goes
