A rhapsody! contestants in disguise
A nation of desire
But who will win the prize?
The people stand united,
Reluctantly aligned
Copying and lying
Are the favorite past-time
You've got a chance
To confront the world today
Desperate romance
Is the curse of castaways
What good is sk**
If you don't make it to the dance?
Despite circumstance
You've got a chance
Common life depicted on afternoon tv,
Is spiked to give the miserable a vogue identity
Hate your neighbors,
Cheat your friends,
They don't discriminate
Popularity and fame don't care
If you're a reprobate
You've got a chance
To confront the world today
Desperate romance
Is the curse of castaways
What good is sk**
If you don't make it to the dance?
Despite circumstance
You've got a chance
I'm tired of all this
Shakespearean misinformation
I want to win the game
You've got the right intentions
But who's got time to think?
You've got a noon appointment,
You've got to hit the links
You're talking in the stratosphere,
You're curled up on the floor
With such a wealth of information,
Why are you so poor?
You've got a chance
To be relevant today
Desperate romance
Is the curse of castaways
What good is sk**
If you don't make it to the dance?
(don't you believe what the wise men have to say)
Despite circumstance
You've got a chance
