Miniature Disasters

Don't wanna be second best Don't wanna stand in line Don't wanna fall behind Don't wanna get caught out Don't want to do without Oh and the lesson I must learn Is that I've got to wait my turn Looks like I gotta be hot and cold Gotta be taught and told Got to be good as gold But perfectly, honestly Oh, I think it would be good for me 'Cause it's a hindrance to my health If I'm a stranger to myself Oh, miniature disasters and minor catastrophes Bring me to my knees Well, I must be my own master Or a miniature disaster will be, oh It will be the death of me I don't have to raise my voice Don't have to be underhand Just gotta understand That it's gonna be up and down It's going to be lost and found Oh, and I can't take to the sky Before I like it on the ground And I need to be patient And I need to be brave Need to discover How I need to behave And I'll find out the answers When I know what to ask But I speak a different language And everybody's talkin' too fast Miniature disasters and minor catastrophes Bring me to my knees, yeah Well, I must be my own master Or a miniature disaster will be, will be, yeah, yeah Well, I've gotta run a little faster Or a miniature disaster will be, will be Oh well, I need to know I'll last If a little miniature disaster hits me, oh, oh It will be the death of me
