Shape I'm In
I was down on myself both day and night
I couldn't get a thing to go just right
I was hangin by my thumb and
Slippin on my feet
I had to take a break I couldn't stand the heat
Just when I thought I could never win
I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
I went to the movies last night again
I couldn't stay long enough to see the end
But there was something going on
That I couldn't see
Everybody's making out on the balcony
I was missing out on the fun again
But I'm doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
I tried so hard to get back in the race
I'd be satisfied if I could place
There's so much competition but the best
Don't always win
I'm doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
I went to a party and made a few passes
One was a dream and the other was nasty
I guess you know by now that I did it again
But I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
I was down like a dollar coming up
Against a yen
I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
I couldn't get a thing to go just right
I was hangin by my thumb and
Slippin on my feet
I had to take a break I couldn't stand the heat
Just when I thought I could never win
I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
I went to the movies last night again
I couldn't stay long enough to see the end
But there was something going on
That I couldn't see
Everybody's making out on the balcony
I was missing out on the fun again
But I'm doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
I tried so hard to get back in the race
I'd be satisfied if I could place
There's so much competition but the best
Don't always win
I'm doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
I went to a party and made a few passes
One was a dream and the other was nasty
I guess you know by now that I did it again
But I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
I was down like a dollar coming up
Against a yen
I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
