Текст песни: I Didn't Get Where I Am Today + перевод

It’s made me feel so sad

And brought it home to me once more

I want what I cannot have

When you can’t get what you want

You still have all the rest

But isn’t it sad to settle for second-best?

I’ve been waiting at home

For someone to phone

I didn’t get where I am today

Without living that old cliche

I’ve been lying in bed

The sheets over my head

I didn’t get where I am today

Without giving up in dismay

Hey hey hey

Told everyone I’m over it

I’ve quit this cul-de-sac

But just when I thought

I’d lost it for good

That feeling comes right back

When you can’t get what you want

You wear your bravest face

But deep inside you’re sinking without a trace

I’ve been called repressed

A poet, a pest

I didn’t get where I am today

Without getting in someone’s way

I live my life on a stage

Put it down on the page

I didn’t get where I am today

Without writing a resume

I didn’t get where I am today

Hey hey hey

Hey hey hey

I didn’t get where I am today

I didn’t get where I am today

I’ve explored situations

Hey hey hey

The themes and variations

Hey hey hey

I didn’t get where I am today

Without losing it on the way

On the Street of Shame

Hey hey hey

Looking for someone to blame

Hey hey hey

I didn’t get where I am today

Without leaving in disarray

I didn’t get where I am today

Hey hey hey
