You've Got A Chance

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 skill

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 skill

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 skill

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
