Lyrics

So don't worry if you think you're not remarkable/

Most humans think they haven't come far at all/

And that's the truth but don't just take it from me...

You were made in a star and every particle/

Came together to make you the finished article/

The chance of you defies all probability

(believe, so leave, it be, you'll see)//

You are the infinitesimal un-likeliness/

The result of everything since the big bang provided us/

With all the elements that make life from dust/

And enough time to go from simple life to... "huh?"/

Somehow we perceive and have a consciousness/

But there's a consequence, what we want is just/

Confused between our instincts from prehistoric times/

Food, shelter and passing our genetics down the line/

And modern times, how we feel, how they feel about you/

What you think, what you want, what you needed to do/

We're the intellectual equivalent of supermarket shopping/

Too much choice, too much freedom, too much option/

Some take what they see: get straight off the aisle/

Some stand making decisions, it may take them a while/

Some of them are straight in denial and often miss out/

But I tell you I hate shopping, I'm forever in doubt/

I'm not one of the celebrities - done nothing with my life/

My accomplishments are minimal, got lucky with my wife/

I got lucky with my current job and lucky with my family/

Got lucky being born at all, but luck is not a plan B/

It's not a fall back - it's funny how we exist/

Just keep on plodding up a mountain of mist/

Knowing at some point: we'll fall down off a cliff/

And your brain gets the better of you, drowns you in lists/

...You can't relax before you tick 'em off/

For every little job you do another sixty's not/

I've discovered you're either a pessimist with too much to do/

Or a hedonist who snoozed and he losed... lost//

I knew I wanted to make music for the rest of my days/

...And that's all I've done and now the time is ebbing away/

And I've killed many projects cos they weren't the best ones I made/

And then I wrote this stuff and

still thought that the message was vague/

And recently I've been waking every day in a rage/

Angry at each and every thing I feel that gets in my way/

Until I realised everything I have is not here to stay/

And I should even be thankful for things that feel like a pain/

Cos feeling feelings is the very definition of life/

And needing reasons for existing's inefficient on time/

And each and every person feels they need a piece of the pie/

They're either greedy or they seem to lose their seat in the line/

I've been in pieces recently, the Grim Reaper will hide/

And wait until you breathe easy then unreasonably strike/

And leave your family devastated who plea for rewind/

...But this is all part of a human being's design/

And we're so quick to forget that we're a miracle/

The statistics on people's happiness these days is pitiful/

They'll say you should become something to be an individual/

But you're the original and greatest there's ever been of you//
