Yes, I want to be the first thing that you think of
Yes, I want to be the best at everything I do, love
And you can say I do it all for the attention
And I'd reply, "Oh, babe. There's so much more that I could mention."
Blessed or cursed
I'm the center of my universe
In the grand scheme it won't mean a thing
So i'm giving all that I can bring
'Cause you can't take it with you
You can't take it with you
I forgive you if you think I'm self-invested
But I'll also let you know that I'm not interested
'Cause that's the way it goes: you only get one shot
And that's why everybody ought to give it all that they've got
Blessed or cursed
I'm the center of my universe
In the grand scheme it won't mean a thing
So i'm giving all that I can bring
'Cause you can't take it with you
You can't take it with you
'Cause you can't take it with you
On the long road ahead
'Cause you know
You've always known
That you either end up a star or dead
Blessed or cursed
I'm the center of my universe
In the grand scheme it won't mean a thing
So i'm giving all that I can bring
'Cause you can't take it with you
You can't take it with you
