I Can't Compete

Lyrics:

V1
I listen to the music shows,
the one's where everybody goes.
I'm quite impressed but Heaven knows
I can't compete with all of those.
I make a song up in my head
and play the keyboard by my bed
or try to strum guitar instead
but I am such a dunderhead.

CHORUS
How can I compete with
bands that knock them off their feet
The best I got is sweet or raw
I guess I'm just an amateur

V2
It's not enough to write a tune and sing it from your heart.
Then sometimes in the afternoon, not long after you start.
You know the song will never sound
like anything you've heard around
and everyone will know for sure
that you are just an amateur.

CHORUS

V3
While other bands produce
a song that gets your juices flowing
Bass drum rhythm lead and keys
A vocal that will always please
Professional progressive noise.
they sing with such expressive voice,
while I am just depressive, Boys,
I sulk and then throw out my toys.

CHORUS
