lyrics

All I wanted was a ten
I’d wait in line behind a thousand men
peeling the blood orange
between the chosen and forgotten
the busy and the taken
the ripe and the rotten.

Then all I wanted was a nine
A blue eyed trophy I could call mine
But gold don’t float
And all waters wanna rise
I didn’t laugh near half
So hard as I cried

Then all I wanted was an eight
A bit of infinity, I couldn’t wait
But I was too soon
Or I was too late
It’s scary how close
Love is to hate

Am
You don’t need aces, boys.
D
Find yourself a queen.
Am
If you don’t already
D
Someday you’ll know what I mean.
Don’t get me wrong
I’m no prize
I’m no swan
I’ll never fly

I don’t belong in hell
I don’t belong in heaven
On my best day
I’m a six or a seven
