Several Shades of Green
Wreckless Eric

I was nearly someone back in the day

I was in the lower reaches of the hit parade

in between the pages of some stupid magazines

posing in a jacket that I wouldn't be seen

dead in or fit in today

I was out of time I was out of step

singing out of tune with some band that didn't get

the pictures, the poetry though they said they liked the songs

and they always sang along

though they usually got the words wrong

they did my head in

if I'd known then what I know now

but everybody says that - it's a fool's game

I wouldn't do it different I'd just do it all again

I'd take my turn I'd stand in line for groundhog day

I'd do it all again for another crack at the hit parade

oh what do you think?

I was pretty

I was thin

I was several shades of green

and every day I saw things that I wished I'd never seen

I couldn't tell kings and queens from aces hearts and jacks

I didn't know Cracker Barrel from a shotgun shack

And every day I saw things that I wished I'd never seen

And every day I saw things turned me several shades of green

if I'd known then what I know now

but everybody says that - it's a fool's game

I wouldn't do it different I'd just do it all again

I'd take my turn I'd stand in line for groundhog day

I'd do it all again for a...

I don't know why I'd do all that again

just for the sheer THRILL

of doing it all again

yeah - sock it to me
