You've Got a Chance

A rhapsody! Contestants in disguise

A nation of desire but who will win the prize?

The people stand united, reluctantly aligned

Copying and lying are the favorite pastime

(Chorus)

You've got a chance to confront the world today

Desperate romance is the curse of castaways

What good is skill if you don't make it to the dance?

Despite circumstance

You've got a chance

Common life depicted on afternoon TV

is spiked to give the miserable a vogue identity

Hate your neighbors, cheat your friends, they don't discriminate

Popularity and fame don't care if you're a reprobate

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

I'm tired of all this Shakespearean misinformation

I want to win the game

You've got the right intentions but who's got time to think?

You've got a noon appointment, you've got to hit the links

You're talking in the stratosphere, you're curled up on the floor

With such a wealth of information, why are you so poor?

You've got a chance to be relevant today

Desperate romance is the curse of castaways

What good is skill if you don't make it to the dance?

(Don't you believe what the wise men have to say)

Despite circumstance

You've got a chance
