I look in the mirror, I stand one eightyfive I'm glad I'm not too short, I'm glad that I'm alive There's sometimes on a bad day, I got no selfesteame Especially when I see those shining color magazines Lord, you know I can see the picture now of the transformation they could do for me If I was dumb enough I'd pick up that phone And get in line, and they could stretch my sat on skin until it shines Desire and envy, welded up in your heart You wanna take that hammer to your next door neighbors car So you dream of the good life, and how the fantasy burns Makes you gamble on the tv, but you never ever learn One in a million is better odds than you've got But you still believe that this could be the one Why don't you just relax and try to conseal the perfect crime Wll, you can rub your lucky charm until it shines Until it shines Just spend your heart and money on a house of cards Not knowing which way the wind will blow Invested all your love and on a crazy whim And there's no telling where she goes So you spend your time with dreaming, thinking how it used to be 'Til you come to know the meaning of regreat You convinse yourself that everything's a going how it all appear, in your head You're polishing the dirt until it shines Lord until it shines, oh Until it shines Lord until it shines, oh All that we're praying for, it ain't always what we find So all of us sit waiting for the sun until it shines
