lyrics

I'm singing for acceptance
I'm singing for the rejection
I'm singing for attention, I'm singing,
"Oh-oh, oh-oh"

I'm singing for show and tell
I'm singing for a spot on your record shelf
I'm singing to sell myself, I'm singing,
"Oh-oh, oh-oh"

I'm singing for sympathy
I'm singing for your charity
I'm singing so you'll pity me, I'm singing—

I was young and in love with the names on the marquee
Dreaming of my face on an LP
"Oh-oh, oh-oh"
Now, I'm old and I know that the Troubadour's green room
Only looks big from the floor of the venue
"Oh-oh, oh-oh"

I'm singing for vanity
I'm singing for the world to want me
I'm singing 'cause I'm lonely, I'm singing,
"Oh-oh, oh-oh"

I'll sing about my daydreams
I'll sing about the girl on the trapeze
Always swinging just out of reach, I'm singing—

I was young I was dumb always chasing the big fish
And all the wine and roses that came with it
"Oh-oh, oh-oh"
Now, I'm old and I know that I'll never be satisfied
My kingdom just to feel self-actualized
"Oh-oh, oh-oh"

Day in, day out, 'til the wishing well runs dry
