Four months is a long long timenSeeing it now seems all too DickensiannI know I'll sink like the Mary RosenYou know it's pessimism that keeps me on my toesnnFortune favours the luckynSometimes I think I should be more luckynLooking back is not the way forwardnYetnLead on, MacDuffnnCHORUS:nWhy do I revel in self deprecation?nWhy do I care so much about bringing you elation?nPicture us far, far awaynI need nothing but younnWell, the best things in life aren't freenCourage is the currency, courage is the currencynI've been searching and I'll never stop searchingnThat's the trouble with perfectionismnnCHORUS:nWhy do I revel in self deprecation?nWhy do I care so much about bringing you elation?nPicture us far, far awaynI need nothing but you
