Lyrics

It's lucky I learned young
You got to turn the other cheek
I knew before I had begun
I'd have to earn the right to speak
It's not Chicago's fault
That no one came to see me play
It's not the rain
That ruined the parade
The cookie's gonna crumble
And money's gonna burn
So make your peace with failure
A lesson that you learn
You're gonna look foolish
As the sun is in the sky
Some of it is painful
And you're gonna have to try
But you wouldn't trade it
For all that glitters gold
You only went and made it
Despite what you were told
It's not Chicago's fault
That no one came to see my show
You sing the best you can
And then you let it go
That cookie's gonna crumble
And money's gonna burn
You make your peace with failure
An early lesson that you learn
You're gonna look foolish
As the sun is in the sky
Some of it is painful
And you're gonna have to try
But you wouldn't trade it
For all they'd offer you
You sing and play and make things
For that is all that you can do
