'Til It Shines

歌詞

I look in the mirror, I stand one eighty five I'm glad I'm not too short, I'm glad that I'm alive There's sometimes on a bad day, I got no self esteem Especially when I see those shiny color magazines Lord, you know I can see the picture now Of the transformation they could do for me If I was dumb enough I'd pick up that phone And get in line, and they could stretch my sallow skin until it shines Desire and envy, welling up in your heart You wanna take a hammer to your next door neighbours car So you dream of the good life, and how the fantasy burns Makes you gamble on the tv, but you'll never ever learn One in a million is better odds than you've got But you still believe that this could be the one Why don't you just relax and try to concieve the perfect plan Or you can rub your lucky charm until it shines Until it shines You spent your heart and money on a house of cards Not knowing which way the wind will blow Invested all your loveing on a crazy whim And there's no telling where she'll go So you spend your time dreaming, thinking how it used to be 'Til you come to know the meaning of regreat You've convinced yourself that everything's going how it ought to be, in your head You're polishing the dirt until it shines Lord until it shines, oh Until it shines Lord until it shines, oh All that we're praying for, it ain't always what we find So all of us sit waiting for the sun until it shines
