I'm walking round pretty down on my luck
When I saw my reflection in a puddle, and said to myself
How's it come so cold and numb in this town of mine?'
There must be something in the pipeline for me
Just give me half a chance and surely you will see
That I've got more to give than somebody with no heart and soul
Well hey, anyway, how could you possibly understand
Or see, see that we, we're poles apart in another land
But I've gotta say, get it off my chest
What good's potential if I've got no interest at all, anymore, not at all.
I'm walking round pretty down on myself
And I'm passing the places where I used to play when I was a kid
Blink an eye and time goes by in this town of mine.
My mother told me don't let them hold you back,
I know that its easy just to sit around having the craic
That's no good I know I can do much more that this.
So hey, anyway, how could you possibly understand
Or see, see that we, we're poles apart in another land
But I've gotta say, get it off my chest
What good's potential if I've got no interest at all, anymore, not at all.
