Maybe I’ve stuck around too long
Maybe I’m right more than I’m wrong
Maybe my fight just ain’t as strong
As it should be
Maybe I’m just a little rough
Maybe a little’s not enough
Maybe I’m just not quite as tough
As I could be
This party’s getting kinda lame
And you’re just talking to the wall
And all your stories sound the same
If I’ve heard one then I’ve heard em all
So kiss me goodbye
Farewell fall guy
I know I’ll get by
So kiss me goodbye
Sometimes you cut me down to size
Sometimes I’m quick to criticize
Sometimes there’s truth inside the lies
I tell myself
I need to feel like i’m alive
I need a chance to fantasize
I need those stomach butterflies
I need some help
This party’s getting kind of lame
Too bad the cool kids all have gone
And all the songs still sound the same
So put a better record on
And kiss me goodbye
Farewell fall guy
I know I’ll get by
So kiss me good bye
This party’s over anyway
And you're still dancing in the hall
And all the steps still look the same
Play it safe and you'll never fall
And kiss me goodbye
Farewell fall guy
I know I’ll get by
So kiss me good bye
