watch as i come on down to the main stage
and i'll jump with joy
as every prediction i make
is absolutely wrong
watch as i somehow make it to plinko
and toss the chips into the audience instead
watch as i get carried off the stage
by my own bodyguard entourage
who want to keep me away from the game
watch as i become addicted to it all
and spend my days asleep
reliving my three seconds of fame
in my dreams
watch as i start to fall apart
and crumble, crumpling completely
watch as i fall from glory
and from grace
watch me as i turn to other forms of relief
and cross my fingers as i say
that i'll never do it again
watch me as i die far too young
and go to a funeral
where you are the only mourner
watch me as i am forgotten.
