[Verse 1]
(No CAPO)
I know what's gonna hAappen
I'll try to go to Ebed
With fear of failure fElapping
Like a fruit bat in my Ahead
I'll sleep for half an Ahour
The clock will ring at sEix
I'll wake up in the sEhower with a stomach full of bAricks
So I won't have any bDreakfast
Maybe just a little Atea
Like when you have to Ego
And get a colonoscoApy
Which incidentally isn't Dhalf
As disconcerting or upsAetting
As going for a Epart you know
There is no way that you're gAetting
[Verse 2]
But anyway I'm Aheading
Downtown for the audEition
Where everything I'm drEeading
Will be coming to fruAition
And here's what's gonna hAappen
I'll walk in weak with hEunger
And there's a dozen gEirls
Who look like me but ten years yAounger
I'll go into the Dbathroom
And I'll try to vocalAize
And I'll be singing "mEinga-minga-minga-minga-mAing"
But I'll be hearing Sandy suDcks
She really sucks, she really, Areally, really bElows
And she's oEld, and she's lEame
And then sEomeone calls my name
[Verse 3]
(CAPO I)
And here's what Ahappens
I'll walk into the rEoom
The gross fluorescent Elighting is inviting as a tAomb
And everybody smAiles
They'll say its good to Esee ya
But all I see is juEdges
And they'll all look like ScalAia
And then a little bDanter as they look me up and Adown
And somewhere through the Efog of insecurity and Ahate
I'll try to convince them that I'm Dcharming
And I'm clever and I'm Afun to have aEround
But I'm stEarting to unrEavel
In my hEead I hear the gavel
[Bridge]
F#Guilty!
They're gonna throw the book at me 'cuz I'm
F#Guilty!
Of coming in and wasting all their time
F#Guilty!
Of almost every other showbiz crime
Not Gyoung enough!
Not Gthin enough!
Not Gpretty enough!
Not Ggood enough!
N.C.[spoken]
We hereby sentence you to a lifetime of waiting tables and debilitating self-loathing
[Verse 4]
[sung]
But wait now someone's Aasking
So can we hear your vEoice?
I make a lame atEtempt at humor: Do I have a chAoice?
I nod at the pAianist
He's always wearing Eblack
He's always in a tEurtleneck
With dandruff on his Aback
No sooner do I gDet my note
And open up my Atrap
Then inevitably some mEealy-mouthed assistant director's
AThumbs are all over his iPhone
And I Dknow he's probably tweeting
LOAL, This girl is cErap
She's a fEake
She's a pEhony
She could nEever win a Tony
[Bridge]
And Enow I'm in a place I know quite Awell
I've Eleft the world, and I've entered Ahell
I'm tAhis far away from a fainting spell
But Ejust before I Adie
(CAPO II)
I Efinish a song
Which I oversAell
Somebody says thEanks
And wishes me Awell
The nAext thing I know
I'm at TAaco Bell
EStuffing my face with Ameat
[Verse 5]
I'm trying to take it sAlowly
I'm trying to be my Ebest
I'm trying to be more Eholy
Less bitter and deprAessed
I'm reading Eckhart TAolle
He makes a lot of sEense
I bought a Buddhist Ebowl
He says he it helps you be less tAense
It doesn't do a tDhing for me
I sit there on the fAloor
And watch a vivid Esequence
Of humiliating iAnstances from my past go by
And tDhink what kind of masochist
Keeps cAoming back for Emore
When she kEnows what's gonna happen
'Cuz it nEever doesn't happen
'Cuz it Ealways, always
[Verse 5]
(CAPO III)
No! I know what's gonna Ahappen
Don't tell me that I dEon't
And don't say that I'll Erise to
The occasion 'cuz I Awon't
And don't say I've got tAalent
And don't say I've got hEeart
And don't say that I'm cElever
'Cuz I know I'm pretty sAmart
I'm smart enough to Dknow
That I'm too stupid to adAmit
You can't survive a Ediet
That consists of eating Ashit
The trick is knowing wDhen it's time to pack your bags
And sAay "that's Eit!"
You kEnow what's gonna happen
I kEnow what's gonna happen
EHere's what's gonna happen
I qAuit!
I qAuit!
I qAuit!
