Bad Religion - You've Got A Chance lyrics

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 past-time You've got a chance To confront the world today Desperate romance Is the curse of castaways What good is sk** 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 You've got a chance To confront the world today Desperate romance Is the curse of castaways What good is sk** If you don't make it to the dance? Despite circumstance You've got a chance 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 sk** 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
