Maybe The Wonder Stuff

[Verse 1]
Maybe I should be a writer
Write a book and feel much brighter
And share my thoughts with the world
Or maybe then, I could be a filmmaker
Celluloid is more fun than paper
You never see the screen's corners curl
Or maybe then, I could be a lover
Find a girl and win her over
And tell her that she's the only one
But, yeah, maybe then, a philanderer
I'd sneak around and lie to her
And kid myself that I'm the happy one

[Chorus]
I'm not looking over four-leaf clovers
I'm just waiting for Hell to freeze over, yeah, over

[Verse 2]
Maybe I should take the mic
Stand up tall like Michael Stipe
And try to solve the problems of the earth
Or maybe then, I should sit back down
Scratch my chin and use my frown
And try to figure out exactly what I'm worth
We're still building churches, burning books
Killing the babies to feed the crooks
Who said the world would turn out fair?
So I guess I'll dig myself a hole
Ask the devil if he wants my soul
And do something real like cut my hair
