Lyrics:

Had a chip on my shoulder and a mouthful to eat
While I came out on top
I was claiming defeat
I never strayed too far from the passenger seat
Just a couple of kids stumbling in the dark
I kept blaming the scene never scanning my part
Disguising all my aims ‘til it tore me apart

And I,
I never dreamt of settling down
At the horizon was a sound
So in pursuit I shopped around
Spanner in the works to fan a flame
Too many add-ons to my name
Looking sideways for a change
but it never came

On the roads that we traveled many hours from now
Everyone came on board, I was questioning why?
The vanity at show always made it seem vile
There were people I met that was easily impressed
Made me misplace my soul and unsettle my head
The meter on the board peaked a distorted red

And I,
I never dreamt of settling down
At the horizon was a sound
So in pursuit I shopped around
Spanner in the works to fan a flame
Too many add-ons to my name
Looking sideways for a change
suddenly it came

The way it came to hit me
The snake that bit me
I’m still aroused and still amused
I came to see the circus
And now it’s joined us
and I’m finally letting loose

There’s a lesson I’ve learned
And it can’t be unlearned
But I still need the buzz
Of a speaker that burns
The song will still be sung when the season has turned
There’s a twist in the shout
There’s a line on my face
Thicker skin means the string can be easier bent
It’s really looking up for a veteran

And I,
I never dreamt of settling down
At the horizon was a sound
So in pursuit I shopped around
Spanner in the works to fan a flame
Too many add-ons to my name
Looking sideways for a change
Here it comes again

La la la la la la la la
Here it comes again
