Lower

NOFX · 45 Or 46 Songs That Weren't Good Enough To Go On Our Other Record [2002]

I will never feel the ribbon break,

I will never taste sweet victory,

I don't want to leave the rest behind,

I don't want inscription on a plaque.



Never first or second place,

I won't ever run your rat race,

I will always be lower than you,

I won't be your competition, lowest

Totem pole postion is where I'd rather

Stay than be like you.



I don't feel the animal instinct,

I am not on top of the food chain,

The only battle I will fiercely fight,

Is one that hibernates inside my head.



Be the best, climb the ladder,

Do it better, higher, faster,

I refuse to participate,

If I go up, it will be slow, I'm bringing

Everyone I know and stopping on the

Sixth or Seventh rung.



On a pedestal, isn't the view great,

You better watch your step, cause it's a nasty fall,

When there's no one to

Catch you when you call...(x2)
