Eric Michaels - Beautiful People Lyrics

Do you know some of us don't get lucky the first time
Do you know just how often you start out first in line
You say it's just like breathing: breathe me out, breathe her in
And then you wonder why I hold to you like oxygen

And you beautiful people
Don't understand that we are not like you
We only get one or two chances in this filthy world
And then we're through

You have the gravitational pull of a f*cking planet
Isn't it great how everyone is just drawn to you
You say hey, I should try it: get myself a few new moons
It turns out some of us are swampy little asteroids

And you beautiful people
Don't understand that we are not like you
We only get one or two chances in this filthy world
And then we're through

You could not bear to turn down anything that comes your way
Turns out not saying "no" is still a choice

You think this shit just happens
Every goddamn day, to everyone
You beautiful people
Don't understand that we are not like you
We only get one or two chances in this filthy world
And then we're through
