High Ambition

I wish I was more of a go-getter
I was always more of a dog petter
All I ever wanted to do was write a good song

I dreamed of being a trendsetter
But all I have is this old sweater
My style is my own, and I like to think I look fine

Ambition eludes me
I'm conditioned to spend afternoons on the porch
Evenings getting stoned

You start your day at 5 in the morning
Everything you like, I find boring
ROI, real estate, profit, investments, and stock

I keep pressing snooze til 9 or 10:30
Stay in pajamas and wake up slowly
Setting goals and keeping appointments was never my jam

Ambition eludes me
I'm conditioned to spend afternoons on the porch
Evenings getting stoned

You drink water out of a plastic bottle
You never slow down, always at full throttle
Show up to work on your day off to show that you care

Clubs in your trunk just in case it's sunny
Play 18 holes, and talk about money.
Your calendar's full and you say you like it that way

Well, I'm a high achiever, Just not the kind you think
I'm a high achiever. That's my personal guarantee

Ambition eludes me
I'm conditioned to spend afternoons on the porch
Evenings getting stoned

Ambition eludes me
I'm conditioned to spend afternoons on the porch
Evenings getting stoned
