Same Old Story - Spock's Beard

Sid was wild when he was a kid

Never quite understood why he did just what he did

Now he wonders why nobody likes him

Now he wonders why he can’t get any respect

His is the same old story

Yet another chapter in your book

He fell flat in his moment of glory

You try to turn away, but you take a look

Now he wants us all to feel his sadness

You cannot win the game if you go insane

With all the junk spilling from his mouth of madness

Sid went high to the top of the mountain

Stood tall with the weight of the world upon his back

In a sea of money and power

He fought for his name until the final hour

His is the same old story

Yet another chapter in your book

He fell flat in his moment of glory

You try to turn away, but you take a look

Now he wants us all to feel his sadness

You cannot win the game if you go insane

With all the junk spilling from his mouth of madness

I used to be an honest man

I used to laugh, I used to cry

Now it’s gone and I don’t know why

No matter how hard I try,

I can’t lie

To myself anymore

His is the same old story

Yet another chapter in your book

He fell flat in his moment of glory

You try to turn away, but you take a look

Now he wants us all to feel his sadness

You cannot win the game if you go insane

With all the junk spilling from his mouth of madness

His is the same old story…
