You Might

Off to face the world again

Past the bathroom mirror

Ignorance is bliss, they say

Couldn't be much clearer

Imaging what might have been

Thinking it could still be

All the lost years in between

Still a sucker for a dream

You might be an oil tycoon

You might be a Cobb cartoon

You might be a Gershwin tune

You might be but you're not

You might be a nations fall

You might be an eagles call

You might be the Albert Hall

You might be but you're not

Play the fool and act the clown

Impress your friends and neighbours

Not so good when you come down

With nothing for your labours

You could've been a movie star

You could've been a hero

You could have won a bridge too far

The best you get is no cigar

You might be an oil tycoon

You might be a Cobb cartoon

You might be a Gershwin tune

You might be but you're not

You are what you are

You see what you see

You might be an oil tycoon

You might be a Cobb cartoon

You might be a Gershwin tune

You might be but you're not

You might be a nations fall

You might be an eagles call

You might be the Albert Hall

You might be but you're not
